A water shortage can affect you no matter where you live in the world. It's arguably humanity's most vital natural resource. It sustains all other activities; it's the essential basis of economies, societies and human life. A water shortage in Mt Timid would mean loss of property, jobs, business, lack of growth, and most importantly loss of lives which will turn Mt Timid into what is known as a ghost town. If preventable, it is inhumane to let this terrible incident occur. This is why an environmental scientist with over 4 decades of experience such as myself has been contacted to aid in creating a solution to this problem.
A model has been made to estimate the amount of water remaining in the reservoir at any given time. The model …show more content…
The methods used in achieving these are at the discretion of the council. Based on the model A(t) = C + Ft - U * (365/10^9) *t * P0*R^t, growth rate of the population, as shown in Figure.2, and Figure.6 is one of the single most important variables in which a decrease in will cause a less steep and therefore slower depletion of the Mt Timid aquifer. Another recommendation would be to reduce the amount of water usage. When water usage, A(t) = 50 + 4.25t - 550 * (365/10^9) *t * 9000*1.03^t was increased by 186 L, peak water was achieved in 38 years as opposed to 50 years, Figure.6. This shows that a decrease in water usage through a range of different means such as adding a tax levy when individuals go above a certain threshold or simply forcibly limiting the water given to each household coupled with a decrease in population growth will drastically increase the time taken for peak water to be attained and therefore increase the longevity of the Mt Timid Aquifer. Above all, the simplest of solutions is simply for the council to build a larger aquifer which will be sufficient for a minimum of 2 centuries. Besides the council taken the aforementioned steps, citizens of Mt Timid should take steps into reducing the amount of water being used and become more sustainable by taking steps such as not watering the garden daily and during rainy seasons, recycling (water is used in making new products), reducing the amount of meat being consumed as 1kg of beef requires over 15,000 litres of water. A mountain more of other steps can be taken by the citizens of Mt Timid in order to become more sustainable and in doing so increase the amount of water accessible now, and in the
