Attention Getter– (START SLIDE 1) Good Morning/Afternoon. Before I begin my speech, I would like to share with you some interesting facts about water consumption. Did you know that the average human adult consists of 72% water? That’s right. 72% water. And not only that, but we achieve the highest consistency of water when we are first born, being approximately 90% water weight. B. Relevance – These facts clearly show how vital water is for the human body and how relevant water is throughout our…

frustration with certain issues, politicians, and sometimes even the public as a whole. What initially appears to be a simply humorous cartoon is actually so much more. In these two cartoons, two completely unrelated issues are addressed: the Flint water crisis and global warming. Yet, both topics are discussed by displaying criticism that natural disasters are frequently disregarded until one’s career is at stake and even then, issues are ignored. When looking at these two political cartoons…

Thames Water, as the biggest water company in England and Wales, has made unacceptable failure to control water leakages just months after pouring raw sewage into London’s main river. The companies’ behaviors bring a set of moral issues and is a right/wrong conflict. The most important moral challenge in this case is that Thames Water made profit at the cost of environment and public health while its primary obligation is to protect public health. Thames Water is being investigated by regulator…

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…

Reform, however, must begin at national and provincial level institutions to be effectively carried through all fractions of water governance. Poor governance is recognised as one of the causes of the current water crisis. This is underlined by Siebrits et al. (2014) whose research identified priority questions for key themes in South Africa. Using an integrated and strategic adaptive management approach Siebrits et al. (2014) presented eleven topical questions for…

Although water is seemingly abundant in the world, most of it is not suitable for human use due to water pollution. Humans are constantly polluting water resources, which has been a major factor in rapidly decreasing water supply. Pollution is defined as the process by which harmful substances are added to the environment. In this essay, I will be focusing on agricultural activities, which is commonly referred to as farming. Water pollution from agriculture is a serious problem, and in some…
