PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES FOR WATER SCARCITY ACROSS THE GLOBE

Image
INTRODUCTION: Water scarcity is a major issue facing the world today. With the global population continuing to grow and with climate change causing more frequent and severe droughts, the demand for water is only going to increase. Water scarcity is a major global problem that is going to get worse in the coming years. With the population continuing to increase, the demand for water is outstripping the supply. This is leading to water shortages in many areas as well as a decline in the quality of water available. The problem of water scarcity is exacerbated by the effects of climate change. As the climate warms, Earth’s water cycle is becoming more erratic. This means that there are more extreme weather events such as droughts and floods. These events can lead to even more water shortages. It is important to take precautionary measures to ensure that we have enough water to meet our needs. This includes things like water conservation, water efficiency and water storage. In this arti...

GLOBAL WARMING DEMANDS ATTENTION OF THE WHOLE WORLD

Image
INTRODUCTION : Currently, global temperatures are the highest they’ve been in recorded history. Earth is going through a rapid, man made warming trend, meaning that we are on the brink of an environmental disaster. Global warming is the long term rise of the Earth’s average surface temperature. CO2 emissions from human activity are the main driver of global warming. Burning fossil fuels like natural gas, oil and coal releases heat trapping gases in to the atmosphere. These gases form a “blanket” around Earth that traps energy from the sun. Earth's atmosphere becomes warm as a result of this trapped energy, which also affects the planet's temperature. It is not just the Earth’s temperature that we must worry about in the near future. Climate change caused by global warming has the potential to cause various types of disasters including hurricanes, famine, drought and displacement of species. Climate change has the potential to cause all sorts of other risks as well. Despite al...

Image
INTRODUCTION : The world we live in today is far from perfect. There is war, poverty, disease and injustice. What if, though, things were otherwise? What if human rights ruled the world? Imagine a world where everyone was treated fairly and equally. A world where everyone had access to food, shelter and healthcare. A world where everyone was free to express themselves and live their lives as they saw fit. This is the world we should be striving for. A world where human rights are respected and upheld. A world where we can all be happy. Every person in the world, from conception to death, is entitled to some fundamental freedoms and rights. They apply regardless of where you live, what your nationality is, what your ethnic origin is, what language you speak, what your religion is or how much money you have. The idea of human rights is that all people are equal in dignity and worth. This means that everyone is entitled to the same basic rights and freedoms without discrimination. The c...
