I. Bottled Water Vs Tap Water 1. I do think that bottled water labeling and advertising is misleading. The bottled water labels do not make it obvious that it is actually tap water and a person would need to be educated on how and where to discover how the water was bottled. 2. I knew most bottled water was tap water, but I thought that it was at least filtered water that was bottled. It surprised me that people couldn’t tell the difference in the way the water tasted. Maybe It is because I…

Brian Fagan, an anthropologist at the University of California, Santa Barbara, works his way across the globe to find evidence…

Like Australia, California is reducing its water-demand through short-term and long-term conversation measures. Short-term measures include restrictions on the number of days’ lawns can be watered and calls for shorter showers and fewer toilet flushes. These short-term measures are fast and relatively inexpensive way to meet state-mandated reduction targets in potable water use and have helped reduce drawdown from surface water dams and groundwater aquifers. (Turner, 2016) Long-term…

Health benefits Often, rural water supply projects are justified on the basis of assumed improvements in health, however, such results are difficult to attribute solely to public health interventions. Human behavior and its complex relationship with the environment are equally important in determining overall health status as availability of safe water (Churchill et al., 1987). Improvements in health outcomes are highly correlated with level of female education, income and literacy (Roudi-Fahimi…

Extended along the western coast of South America sits Chile, a country placed between the world’s deepest ocean, the Pacific, and the longest mountain chain, the Andes. This geographic predicament has left Chile vulnerable to devastating earthquakes due to the tectonic instability of the region. In addition to an unstable natural environment, societal and political instability have also plagued Chile’s past including the incident of a violent coup overthrowing the Marxist government in 1973.…
