problem concerning a lack of water and a famine resulting from the drought. One major problem with water was the possibility of having severe brackish water as the major supply of such a necessary liquid. High and low tides introduce a supply of salt from the Atlantic which can severely interfere with the fresh water supply from rivers feeding into the Chesapeake, with major complications resulting such as salt intrusions within aquifers. These major issues with the water can be demonstrated…

in order to be sustainable. An example of business model that failed because of their inability to be sustainable was DuPont Chemicals.

Water is, and has always been, a basic human necessity and one with which no individual can survive without for a significant period of time. This is an irrefutable fact and because of this, there is little doubt that if water resources were horrifically depleted, conflicts between countries would arise, as would increased prevalence of illness, overpopulation in areas with water and general impoverishment from failing agriculture. With these effect, serious additional issues would be triggered…

agriculture and water resource management. Agriculture is the single main sector of water usage in Bangladesh, with irrigated paddy rice using 70% of water resources (Chowdhury, 2010). Agricultural demands of water are considerably more sensitive to climate change, particularly for irrigation. Irrigation has revolutionized rice production in Bangladesh. Climate change may alter climatic parameters which affect the crop water requirement and irrigation water demand. Changes in irrigation water…

for fresh water grows alongside the burgeoning global population; but with rising temperatures and varying climates, water’s dispersal is becoming less uniform and less predictable to the extent that even historical bodies of water like Lake Chad may become dry. With this sporadic access to water, questions rise as to the proper method of water distribution. Privatization is a proposed method that claims private companies ought to be tasked with the treatment and distribution of water, rather…

the human race isn’t the reason for Earth’s decline in resources. It is, in fact, us. We, as a species, are solely responsible for Earth’s sudden decline in sustainability. It is not how many of us there are, it is how we live and how we produce, consume and waste our many resources. One of the biggest issues in todays world has a lot to do with the state of the environment, and the fact that we are the ones…

It’s no secret that water is essential for life. From humans to animals, we all need water in order to survive. Water should be universally considered and accepted as a human right, just like air. Through Resolution 64/292 the United Nations officially declared water as a human right in 2010 (UN). As stated by the researchers of, a huge problem we’re facing in this day and age is “privatization of water for corporate interest rather than human rights” (Johnson). When water rights are given to…

Introduction Water has become one of the most prominent natural resources gifted by the Mother Nature, since the early existence of all life forms on the planet Earth. With the vast improvements in society, the living beings, especially human’s consumption of water has advanced from solely for drinking, cleaning and cooking purposes to using water for entertainment and advanced infrastructure (mining) etc. Along with its consumption, there have been numerous issues arising about the ‘influence…
