Desalination

drinking purposes. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change created a simulation to show how the salt can mix in to the groundwater aquifers, thus becoming brackish and no longer fit for drinking (Thompson). Many argue that desalination can solve this issue, but desalination is still in its early phases. It would be extremely costly and lead to an energy problem down the road. Mimura expands on Thompsons central claim by explaining the widespread effect globally on groundwater, specifically…

end the drinking of unsanitized and contaminated water. One solution is desalination, which is the removal of salts/minerals from the ocean water to create purified and drinkable water. The first criteria of this solution is that the existence of the water crisis would no longer be present. Since the amount of seawater is very abundant, desalination may be the cause of the end of this world crisis. This means that desalination could bring a limitation to the complications that we face caused by…

The website Greenpeace.org hosts an article titled Fracking’s Environmental Impacts: Water. The article discusses the many dangers hydraulic fracturing or fracking poses to water sources both above and below ground. The article also discusses the effects of poor regulation of hydraulic fracturing operations the fracking fluid that is used in the hydraulic fracturing process. Greenpeace.org does not waste any time letting the reader know how they feel about the practice of hydraulic…

An essential resource to all living things is water. According to the United States Geological Survey, only 2.5% of the world’s water is freshwater, which is the amount needed for life to survive (2016). The majority of the freshwater is locked up in glaciers and ice caps. The rest of the freshwater is trapped in soil or underground aquifers. It is easily forgotten that water is a finite resource. Due to global warming, reservoirs are getting smaller and melting earlier than expected. According…

The unit costs $520.99 and it's a reliable option for removing the debris and dirt every time you want. To find out more about this model, look at its main features and characteristics and see why…

Indian society is one of division. From caste to religion, some residents of India are seen as ‘belonging’ to the country and others are not. Critically, this division also extends to the provision of clean water, a fundamental human right. Major swaths of Mumbai’s population have shaky access to water at best, and what is available is often unsuitable for consumption. Those in positions of power continuously enforce views on which peoples hold legitimate versus illegitimate rights to water. It…

What would happen if California were to run out of water completely, just because the government did not do anything to stop it from happening? Farmers and regular citizens are drilling the ground in search of groundwater. Currently there are no laws restricting or monitoring the amount of groundwater we can use, and without these laws we could run out of water. In order to conserve and save water legislation needs create regulations to monitor and control both citizens and farmers use of…
