My thesis statement.

The water around the world.

Even though nowadays we are facing problems with water around the world, people continue wasting it. Water is too important for life because it is essential for humans and animals, now there is less water and this affects the whole world.

We can make a change, we still have time, we are aware about this situation. Now let`s start to conserve water, the vital liquid that makes everything possible.

 

1-     Importance of the water

This resource is too important for many things as earth, plants, for everything, especially for humans and animals.

The true is nothing in the world can`t live without water.

2-    Water contamination

We know the problem that we are facing called “GLOBAL WARMING” and it is product of the pollution. We have to make a stop, do not contaminate more! Think about this problem.

Everybody knows that there are many factors contaminating this resource, for example:

a-   Factories:

We can see how factories contribute with pollution such as fishing factories, oil wells, mining, nuclear factories and others

The fishing factories contaminate the water when they throw all the residues to the rivers or seas.

The oils wells are a big problem when happens an accident in to the sea, down the water when the tubes are broken and after weeks or months people fix this problem. But while the oil spill takes more place and the animals are dying, this is too sad when happens this situations.

The mining also contaminate when people use a big tubs for wash the material and the chemicals that they use, even though there are many countries where there are many mining and the people who lives near are sick to cause of the mining.

The nuclear factories use chemicals to a highest toxic level, some factories use the adequate security for the residues but sometimes there are problems with chemical spill and no only affects the water also affects people for the radioactivity killing everything, people could clean the spill but do not the radioactivity.

b-    Dam: people always try to solve the problems and they find a solution. For example they want to produce energy and they find the solution in the water with the dams but humans are using the nature for produce energy, they have to use water especially the rivers because this water flows and the way that they control the water for construct a dam is dangerous for the nature, humans and animals. Start with the rivers dry up and they alter the watercourse. Here in Panamá nowadays we fight with these problems because there are many dams in all the country and now there are less water, even though the companies that are constructing the dams here in Panamá they are going to produce energy to send to another country. Imagine they construct here in our land and is not for us, is for another country and what we get? Just sickness and problems with the water even they got energy by us. That is why dams destruct rivers.

c-    Deforestation: threes helps a lot the water especially in the forest. I am going to explain you why.

Fresh water (no salt) is essential for life on Earth, and forests are essential for the fresh water. Forests filter and clean the water, heavy rains dampen otherwise erode soils, and held in place by the banks of rivers. In turn, the water carries dissolved nutrients and distributes them across the forest floor. Forests act as "sponges", able to collect and store large amounts of rainwater. Forest soils absorb four times more rainwater than soils covered by grasses, and 18 times more than the bare ground. With their deep root systems, trees are able to extract water from deeper soil zones. Water moves through the tree and is used in photosynthesis, in cooling, and other growth processes. Evaporates as vapor from the leaves. In this cycle, the trees are "water sources" who redistribute the liquid living: moisture, which would be trapped in underground form it not for the trees, is released through the leaves into the air, which then condenses into clouds and falls again as rain. Without trees to distribute this water, the climate in many regions would be much drier. This constant underground reservoir and water is released slowly and gradually by trees, helping to prevent flooding and seasonal droughts.

But deforestation is generally caused by human action, in which the surface is destroyed forestall. Is directly caused by the action of man over nature, mainly due to logging or fires burning by the timber industry and for the acquisition of land for agriculture, mining and ranching. It does not affect threes; it also affects animals and humans. After deforestation the floor to the forest is not the same and it is a poor land. Also the time that takes a forest deforested in be again a forest it takes about 70 years. So imagine deforestation is an activity very dangerous. The things that humans cause with deforestation in some minutes or hours, the forest takes years in recovered. Remember if we cut a three we have to plant five.

3-     Live without water:

Does live without water?

The answer is simply no live in the world. Imagine no water for drink, for animals, plants, threes, and land…

Could you imagine this? It will be a disaster. Nowadays in some countries there are people who do not have enough water they just have the necessary to survive just water to drink and nothing else.

In other country in some hotels they have a time for take a shower for example 2 minutes for take a shower, so they control the water and people help to do not waste it. Here in Panamá we even have water but do not enough because we are seeing problems with lack of water in some places especially in rivers by the dams. There are many people who does not appreciate the water and they think that money has more value than the water. But someday the will know that water has more value than many material things. There are people who say that the next World War 3 will be for the water, because nowadays there are countries fighting by oil and there will be a time when we will see people fighting by water.

4-   Water preservation: I think that we are on time to preserve this vital liquid. We can promote the messages and convince people to see the reality that we are facing today. Especially the new generation of children we have to teach them to preserve the water, because they are the future. Also we can plant threes and the authorities to our country can ask security measures for the factories and the water that they contaminate they purify with a machine. Also everybody even children can help do not wasted water and light. We have to care the water; we have to care our home.

We all together can make a better world!
