Speech On Clean Water

When you think of problems in the world today, water pollution isn’t one that would normally come up. In fact it is one of the worst problems in the world today. Water pollution, by definition, is the contamination of streams, lakes, underground water, bays, or oceans by any substances harmful to living things. All living things contain water and most need water to survive, so water pollution is a big problem. If severe, the pollution can kill off birds, fish, and any animals that use the water source. In some cases even killing an entire species.

Water is probably the most important resource we as people have. Humans can survive without food for several weeks, but without water we would die in less than a week. On a slightly less dramatic note, millions of liters of water are needed every day worldwide for washing, irrigating crops, and cooling industrial processes, not to mention leisure industries such as swimming pools and water-sports centers. Despite our dependence on water, we use it as a dumping ground for all sorts of waste, and do very little to protect the water supplies we have.

Specific Purpose: The purpose of this speech is to provide a persuasive speech on the issue of water pollution and inaccessibility to clean water in third world countries and offer some plausible solutions. The three solutions are filtration systems, chlorination, and collection grids.

Water pollution has become a major problem in our water sources. People think that when they litter or dump in our waters that their little contribution will not hurt anything, but everyone’s little contributions add up to some major problems. Our water ecosystems and the species that reside in them are being destroyed and we need to take the steps necessary to stop this. Why would anyone use the source of most of the world’s food as a dumping ground for garbage? People need to start realizing what it is they are doing when they do not take the proper steps to dispose of their garbage and the problems they are making for the future.

Some ways we recycle our water is by using it to water golf fields, ball fields, and parks. We also reuse water but putting it in ponds and other streams for our aquatic wildlife ecosystems. We preserve our water by putting it in underground aquifers. We make our water reusable at water reclamation factories that make them clean enough to put them places safely. In conclusion, we use water a lot so it’s a big priority to make sure we don’t waste it. Without our water, our way of living will become a lot harder. Farm food prices will go up because it’ll cost more to use the water to make the

According to (" UN-Water”) 783 million people do not have access to clean drinking water. The majority of people living in America have plenty of access to clean drinking water and often take that opportunity for granted . The lack of water in undeveloped countries can have a major effect on the economy. Countries that Have clean drinking water means being able to shower, cook, drink, water that can also be used for agriculture. Undeveloped countries with unclean water do not have these benefits

If people do not have clean and safe water to drink, they will die. Human activities are proven to have an effect on water pollution. Water is a vital environmental resource and when polluted it can create disease, illness, and even death. Recycling is an important role that people should take within society. Learning more and educating society about recycling can change the way the world functions. There is an over abundance of products that are being thrown away that could be recycled. Every single person creates waste. Many people disregard where their waste products are going. The cost of landfills and incinerators are becoming too much and cannot keep up with the amount of waste that is arriving. Sadly, a lot of the items being thrown away could have been sold to the needy or recycled. Most items thrown away are not trash or waste, they are simply unwanted and invaluable to the owner. The most critical part regarding these issues is that they can all be fixed. Society has the capabilities to reverse these issues and create a more sustainable world to live

any countries in the world are short of precious water. Given that water is so essential to everyday activities, such as cooking,washing, and growing crops, without the quality of water can affect our nation, even causing economic or social instability. The cdc estimates 780 million people around the world,more than 1 in 10, do not have access to an improved water source one that is protected from outside contaminants.

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.

Let’s start out with pollution in our water source. This could lead to undrinkable water due to deadly toxins that may be residing in the water. I will focus on the Mississippi river, since it is a major river that runs through the central part of our country. There are numerous amounts of bacteria that severely hinder the quality of water that we

Environmental issues have been a big problem since the 70’s, we were warned that if we continued to treat the planet as we already were, and there would be consequences not only on the planet but humans as well. Human beings are continuously destroying the planet and in the process wasting water; yet demanding that we have fresh water for everyone. “By 2050, the global population will demand roughly 80 percent more energy and 55 percent more water than today” (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/adnan-z-amin/the-intersection-of-water_b_8031834.html.) Water covers about 75 percent of the earth and this gets divided into ponds, lakes and rivers. If humans were to lose water as a resource that would have a huge effect on a great many things. We would

Water covers 70% of our planet, and it is easy to think that it will always be plentiful. However, freshwater, what we drink, bathe in, irrigate our farm fields with makes up only 3% of the world’s water, and two-thirds of that is stored in frozen glaciers or unavailable for our use. Many of the water systems that keep ecosystems thriving and feed a growing human population have become stressed. Rivers, lakes and aquifers are drying up or becoming too polluted to use. Already, 80 countries suffer from water shortages that threaten health and economies while 40 percent of the world—more than 2 billion people—does not have access to clean water or sanitation

As the worlds population grows, it is forced by circumstances that it has created to face the limitations of the worlds resources. Most people in the US have always been fortunate enough to have enough of whatever they wanted. When something they like breaks or wears out, they throw it away or buy a new one, and they often don’t even make an attempt to repair an item. They neglect basic maintenance until they damage their belongings beyond repair, and expect that they’ll always have enough. But some things are beyond their control, beyond there power or financial ability to replace or repair. The world’s drinking water supply is one of these without concern, without attention, without preventative maintenance and reclamation and

Looking at societies in different areas throughout the Earth leads one to realize that different societies and the people within these societies are inherently predisposed to different conditions and resources then others. This revelation also leads one to understand that the societies throughout the world are not equal in what resources they have access to and that the individuals in a society may be limited in what their government gives them or allows them to receive. A huge point of inequality on Earth is the reasonable accessibility to clean water. Water can logically be thought of equating to life and the inequality of the reasonable accessibility to clean water, which is in my opinion a human necessity and a basic human right, is something which can only be viewed as atrocious; especially sense water in certain areas of the world is used in such a nonchalant manner. Understanding the inequality of the reasonable accessibility to clean water requires the understanding that clean water equates to water that is drinkable and not hazardous, reasonable means sensible or rational, and that accessible means easily gathered or recuperated; leading to the understanding that the reasonable accessibility to clean water means the availability of a sensible amount of easily recuperated safe drinking water; with a sensible amount of clean water being enough for showering, cleaning, and drinking to sustain a healthy life. The inequality of reasonable accessibility to clean water can
