Food Production : A Essential Component Of The Earth 's Ecosystems

Water may be a renewable resource, but the world’s supply of drinkable fresh water is being consumed more rapidly than ever before, and most importantly, more rapidly than it can be replenished. Only 2.5% of water on Earth is fresh

fresh water found on planet earth is only a mere one percent (1%) and we have to bear in mind that within that one percent some are found in lakes, rivers, streams and underground aquifers.

Water: a necessary facet to all living things. For animals, water can be a home or a drink. As for humans, the uses of water are endless. Not only do we use water as a beverage or washing clothes or dishes, but we also use water for toilets, various kinds of plumbing and other things that aren’t as easily identifiable. As of 2005, this 70% of our Earth has been manipulated and used for thermoelectric power (41.5%), irrigation (37%), domestic affairs (8.5%), public supply (5.4%), industry (5%) and aquaculture (2.6%).1 The importance of water is infinite, not only to our way of life, but also our lives. We need to drink water to ensure the health of individual cells of the body, lubricate joints, moisten mucous membranes of the organs and many other vital bodily functions.2 Not only do we expect the availability of water, but it is highly important to humans and all living things. Although it is such an integral part of our Earth, one may ask about some of its properties and characteristics.

On a regional scale there are similar concerns, especially in areas experiencing rapid population growth (Sun, et al., 2008). Fresh water itself is considered a provisioning ecosystem service as well as being the precursor to a host of other provisioning services such as supplies of fish, timber, and hydroelectric power (Millennium Ecosystem Assessment, 2005). Thus, it is not only water quantity but also water quality that is of

Audience relevance: We all rely on access to fresh water for our very survival; from drinking water to hydroelectric dams, fresh water is an integral part of your everyday life.

Water is essential for life as we know it on earth. It is used by plants

The earth is the only planet suitable for human being and other livings things to live on as of present time. Globally, ground water resources dwarf surface water supplies. Study has estimated 900 million people lack access to safe drinking water and sanitation in the world (1). Unfortunately, many millions die each year from preventable waterborne diseases. Clean water is globally important to human being in so many ways, water is not only important as an element to hydrate and nurture lives, it is also a source of energy.

Egypt spans across the northeast corner of Africa and the southwest corner of Asia. The country is bordered by the Mediterranean sea and the Red Sea as well as Libya to the west, Sudan to the south, and Israel and the Gaza strip to the east. The majority of Egypt's 390,000 square miles of land lies within the Nile Valley of North Africa. Egypt has over 87 million inhabitants, making it the fifteenth most populous country in the world. Across the country, days are typically warm to hot and nights are cool. Egypt experiences a mild winter from November to April and a hot summer from May to October. The country receives very minimal rainfall throughout the year due to it’s desert climate.

Egypt faces a water crisis because the Nile river disappearing and it is how they farm and get water.“Egypt gets almost all of its water from the Nile. The quality of the river water is seriously threatened by untreated industrial and agricultural wastes, sewage, and municipal waste-water. In addition, the Aswan High Dam, which was completed in 1970, has reduced the flow of the Nile and trapped the nutrient in the soil,which is not good So if Egypt doesn't get some help from the other countries it will eventually cease to have life

​The Arab Republic of Egypt is located in the northeastern region of Africa. The climate is arid and dry and most of the country receives less than one inch of rain fall per year. The widespread lack of rainfall makes it extremely difficult to grow crops. Egypt has no forests and only 2 percent of the land is arable (land that can be farmed). The Nile was the giver of life for the ancient Egyptians. The Nile River, the longest river in the world, provided water to drink and fish like

Preserving fresh water has become the essential thing now days, due to a metropolitan growth of

The documentary “Fresh Water” is about life’s dependency on fresh waters that originate from streams in the mountains. The world only contains about three percent of fresh water. These fresh waters come from mainly rivers and lakes that contain a lot of species. Before watching this documentary, I did not know some of these facts but after watching this film I felt more knowledgeable about the species that lived in fresh water and general facts about the freshwater biome. This documentary was interesting and provided me with a lot of knowledge about fresh waters.

Thesis statement: Fresh and clean water is vital to the very existence of the human race.

One of the most important things that contributed to how Egypt is the way it is today is the Nile River. It’s navigable and mellow, which made it one of the safest and richest agricultural places in the world. Because the Nile river was harmless, Egyptians used a form of water management called basin irrigation where

Life on earth is abundant. But every organism on this planet is dependent on water, the most crucial substance needed to support life.
