Essays on Water Scarcity

In my opinion, the most important problem of today is the lack of fresh water. Global freshwater resources are threatened because the need for it has been increased in the variety of areas. More and more people need more water (demographic reasons). Thus climate change is likely to contribute to the occurrence of droughts (climate cause). Fresh water is 3% of the total water volume. Approximately 75% of the world's fresh water is contained in glaciers and icebergs; almost all of the remaining water is mainly located in underground aquifers (Rinkesh). Only 1% of water supplies is readily accessible ...

Research Question- Why is it a problem if the earth’s average temperature gets a little warmer?

1.1 Results The average rising temperature can have vast impacts only by slight increase. The vast impact the average temperature can have can be shown with the average temperature in the last ice age, when the average temperatures were only around 5 degrees Celsius lower than today’s average temperatures. From the Figure 1 it is seen that the global average temperature, which combines the surface and ocean temperature have been on the rise and have reached the highest levels in the ...

Haitian Desal-A-Nation (A solar powered water distiller)

Background Small-scale desalination is a method that helps to desalinize cases of water scarcity. The salt water that is efficient and profitable. And, it is also life-saving and making the affected people live a healthy lifestyle. Several water desalination projects are in place to include the C- water, MIT solar powered desalination system and the Haitian Desal-A-Nation. Figure 1 : the Haitian Desal-A-Nation [3] This project is aimed at developing a distillation system which works solely on sunlight. The architecture is simple and hence can easily be reproduced for more consumers and additionally, the glass material is strengthened for ...

Water scarcity is a global problem that affects several places and regions around the globe. The phenomenon of water scarcity is hitting drier places hard . The impacts of water scarcity in these places have been severe. For example, impacts of water scarcity include crop failure, lack of food and extended starvation amongst populations and death due to waterborne disease in places where water scarcity forces people to consume dirty water. It is on these backgrounds that several individuals, community based organizations, non-governmental organizations, United Nations agencies and government agencies have put together concerted efforts to address the challenge of ...

Abstract:

Lack of fresh water for agricultural, domestic, and industrial use is a great hindrance to development in many parts of the world. Water shortages are more prominent in the arid and semi-arid areas. In addition to that, the inadequate fresh water resources found in these regions are endangered when it comes to quality due to the numerous man-induced changes. Moreover, the limited water available is limited to groundwater. In there is any surface water, it is mainly flash floods that results from high intensity rainfall that falls for a very short time. Therefore, these floods have very little potential to be a ...
