Persuasive Essay On Clean Water

It’s August 21s,t 2015 a week before school starts. We were at the Wisconsin Dells for the end of summer trip. It all started with Will, putting His feet in the ice cold water that feels like it belongs at the bottom of the Atlantic ocean. Will, plumped down on the tub that feels like a bean bag holding itself up he explained. Only if he knew to hang on tight, Will was pushed down the slide (In the tube of course) by the employee that sent me flying down the slide like he was soaring in the sky like a bird. On a sharp turn my tub flipped and Will, landed on his stomach hitting the plastic that’s sticking out of the bottom of the sliding feeling like small needles puncturing my stomach he explained. Will came soaring out the end of the tube to only be told he had to stay on the tube next time or Will would be kicked out of the water park for the employee's accident, Will tried to explain his story but they didn’t believe it. What if Will or any other kid was soaring down the slide and hit their head on the side of the slide going down at 30-40 miles an hour? It can be a tragic accident leading to Brain Damage, Concussions or even Death.Water slides should get more precautions for safety reasons.

Slosh. Clonk. Crush. A sound familiar to anyone who has given the water bottle flipping challenge a shot. Who knew tossing a water bottle up in the air would create such a craze. However, there is more to bottled water than a means to playing a fun game. Bottled water has become a vital part of today’s world. Undoubtedly, bottled water in some way has touched everyone’s life from times of disaster, to underdeveloped countries, and to the American job market, and while some feel bottled water is unsafe for the environment and question the safety of consumer ingestion, alternative eco-friendly materials are being developed, and no

In the modern age of high-speed internet, self-driving cars and VR it’s easy to forget that some places in the world still don’t have fresh water, let alone plumbing. The average person uses between 80 and 100 gallons of water a day. If you drink the recommended 8 glasses per day that’s only 8 oz a glass, or 64 oz in total. Of those 80 to 100 gallons we use an average of 3 every time we flush the toilet, 5 gallons per minute in the shower, 36 gallons for a bath, 8-27 gallons while doing the dishes, 25 gallons for every load of laundry and another 2 gallons a minute if you’re doing any outdoor watering or filling a kiddy pool. By using a newer toilet, you can reduce the gallons per flush to about 1.6 gallons, and when using a water saving shower head you can reduce your use to about 2 gallons per minute. This may not seem like much of a difference, but it can make a big impact.

As you all may know president-elect Donald Trump will soon be inaugurated, congress plans to cope with the lame-duck period which is the post obama era. The government is preparing bills that will help things run smoothly for him when he enters office. One of the things top on their list is the water systems in cities that are poisoned by lead. The Congress plans to introduce many bills that will help the country run better and help more people out.

The one thing humans need on this planet to survive is water. If we need water to survive, then why are polluting it? Most of our nation’s waterways are in terrible condition because of the pollution in the water. Water pollution not only can cause illnesses, but also deaths for humans. Humans aren’t the only thing that water pollution causes harm to. It is also hurting our ecosystem. Humans are the leading cause of most water pollution. We keep throwing wastes into the water making the water unsafe for humans to drink. Scientists are coming up with ways for humans to decrease the amount of wastes they are putting in the water. We need to stop polluting the one thing that keeps us alive.

Pollution has had a shocking impact in the atmosphere for including many irreparable damages to ocean life, serious health issues to human beings, and negative changes to the environment. Pollution is a man-made global dilemma which is increasing to a serious magnitude. Human beings, the number one culprit, seem to be blind to this matter. Humans’ inability to clearly see the problem they are creating, will be one of the causes for the world to be no more.

The next time you're sitting back enjoying a hot cup of coffee consider that you've just consumed up to around one hundred and forty litres of water, that's around how much water it took to grow the coffee beans that are in that coffee. This may be a shock but it is trifling compared to the amount of soil, ground, surface, and rain water it takes to produce most goods humans consume or use on a daily basis, the volume of which each Australian individual consumes is known as the 'water footprint'. Water footprints show the extent of water use in relation to how much is needed for the production of goods consumed by inhabitants of a country. Without package labelling most Australians would have no idea how much water that they are using by purchasing food or goods, or purchasing a home appliance. A global study “Water Footprints Of Nations” (Hoekstra & Chapagain) found that Australia's households had the worlds worst record for the consumption of water, despite having one of the most efficient farming and industrial usages. It is important for Australian residents to find ways to save water in their homes and in the industry to

It has no taste, no smell and no color. We find it in tanks, ponds, wells, rivers and springs. Almost three-fourth of the earth is water. Millions of years ago human beings used water for all rare reasons. Up till now people don't appreciate how precious water is. Saving water at home does not require any significant cost but there are many ways we can save water through our actions.

According to CALBEV, a non-alcoholic beverage industry throughout California, only 4% of sugary calories are in soda and putting warning labels on sugary drinks won’t help or change anything. It won’t change anything because it’s not just soda there’s better and easier way that might actually work. Therefore putting a warning label in every single sugary drink wouldn’t change anything and there’s a better way than just putting warning labels on sugary drinks.

What is the one thing that all humans can agree on? Clean water. Then why are roughly 844 million people around the world living without access to clean water? (UN Water) As simple as it may seem, there are complex layers that have overlapped for generations, leading to an endless cycle of poverty. The scarcity of water contributes to issues in health, education, and poverty. Water impacts nearly every aspect of life; however, the most shocking fact is that we already have the solutions to provide safe water. The first obstacle that we must overcome is the allocation of resources. Now, more than ever, we have access to the world’s finest research and technology that could very easily end the water crisis. The solution to the water crisis starts with spreading awareness and reaching out to generous donors. Proper funding can be raised to reach the goals of charities across the globe. Sustainable clean water technology can be distributed to some of the most poverty-stricken countries in the world, such as Ethiopia, Somalia, and the Democratic Republic of Congo, which all have populations of over fifty percent living without improved drink water sources. (Africa Development Information) I believe we have the means to provide solutions to put an end to the water crisis, but it will require effort from donors and local communities alike. It is possible within the decade that no one will need to drink unsafe water again if we are united by this cause.

Your day has been great so far. You went on vacation, you found a dollar bill on the floor, you ate your favorite dish, nothing can be better than this. As soon as you walk on the boardwalk you are hoping to see big waves and fish in the sea, instead, you see dead fish and some animals floating in the water next to old car tires, trash, and fertilizer. Now you feel terrible and want to go home. Pollution is devastating. The reason why I researched this topic is that I do not want my family nor my planet to get sick. Pollution can be stopped very easily, it’s just that people “don’t know” how to stop or they just don’t care, which is a serious problem. I want people to see that pollution is mainly caused by humans, and also for them to see that it is a horrible thing that is happening. Some kids litter because they see their parents and their whole family doing it. When I was researching this topic, I noticed that I needed to find out more information, so I asked questions to myself. When did pollution get so bad? How many animals have gone extinct because of pollution? How many people die each year because of pollution? How much does everyone on the planet pollute each year? What is the best way to stop pollution? Can just one person make a difference? After a lot of research, I found out lots of ways that we can stop pollution, so it is possible to end it. Or at least improve the air.

Life without bottled water is like life without technology. Without technology the world would be in complete distraught. Teenagers would be wondering around twiddling their thumbs looking for something to fulfill their needs. The same applies for bottled water, in that without it a great amount of people would lose their access to a key essential needed for life. Bottled water is more beneficial than tap because it is cost efficient, socially acceptable, and more readily available.

We all drink water, and every organism that is carbon based, needs of this universal element to survive, but in the modern world of today, and within the society we live in, technology has made it possible to not solely depend on nature’s natural way of recycling water, to drink and use it again, but to also purify it ourselves, thus, meeting the demands of the people’s everyday needs for clean drinking water, but today and more than anything, there is a social controversy for the distribution of water, and in the stance of the essay, we will go in depth and reason, to bottling water. Bottling water, well, let’s start with a bit on the aggressive side, for starters, sure it uses petroleum to make its plastics, thus using natural resources, and later contributing to the enormous amounts of landfill across the world every year, but we should remind ourselves that, nothing that is worth doing is ever easy, and as a matter of fact, companies are already looking for alternative plastic research such as biodegradable plastic, and reducing the amount of plastic used per bottle. But then, we see according to Reader’s Digest, that bottling water is: “ overpriced, glorified tap water ...” , but the truth is that even though some companies admit using tap water for a source, it doesn’t apply to all companies and as a matter of fact as well,

Live Water, a small company, is selling raw water at $36.99 for a 2.5-gallon container and refills at $14.99. Raw water, which is unfiltered, untreated, and unsterilized spring water, is being questioned if it is safe to drink.

We as humans tend to use large amounts of water on a day-to-day basis in order to satisfy our needs that require the use of the scarce resource. For instance, we use water to clean the dishes, do the laundry, take a bath or shower, water the lawn, and most importantly, to drink. However, it isn’t easy to acquire large amounts of water for a large city such as San Antonio, especially when you are located in an area where you are considered a “drought city”. It is essential that we, not only our city but the world, is able to conserve and find methods to obtain clean water.
