WATER SHORTAGES

mafernandabernal16 — 2021-03-05 03:49:14 UTC

If we find the problem of water quality, which is becoming one of the most precious commodities.
it is vital to raise awareness of the importance of taking care of this resource, as it could reduce water consumption and recycling.
if we do not reduce water consumption, water scarcity may increase by 40%.

1. future water scarcity due to domestic consumption is expected to increase during the period from 2010 to 2050. 2. whether this phenomenon may cause wetter regions to become wetter and drier regions to become drier. 3. it is estimated that the world's population may increase from the 7.7 billion recorded in 2017 to between 9.4 and 10.2 billion by 2050. 4. By 2050, 1 in 5 developing countries may face water scarcity. 5. world water demand may increase by 55% by 2050. 6. if we do not change consumption patterns, by 2030 the planet will have only 60% of the water required. 7. If river water is used to generate electricity, the number of fish will decrease.

TIPS

mafernandabernal16 — 2021-03-05 05:04:28 UTC

1. if we take care of water, we can avoid wasting it and reuse it.
2. if we report water leaks, they may not go unnoticed for a long time.
3. if you store the water you need, you can keep the amount you require for your home or business use in a container.
4. if you take advantage of other sources of water supply, you can take advantage of its natural cycle and collect rainwater.
5. if we take care of the environment, we must take care of the environment to ensure that these cycles continue to function.

GREENHOUSE EFFECT

carolinacastro240 — 2021-03-05 20:00:15 UTC

The greenhouse effect is a process that occurs when gases in Earth's atmosphere trap the Sun's heat. This process makes Earth much warmer than it would be without an atmosphere. The greenhouse effect is one of the things that makes Earth a comfortable place to live.

One of the most serious environmental problems: climate change

2021-03-05 21:23:34 UTC

Nature warns us every year that something is changing. And we must listen to it. Based on data from the European Union, the increase in temperature causes:

· Deforestation.

· Destruction of natural habitats.

· Melting of the poles.

· Extreme temperatures.

· Meteorological phenomena such as typhoons or hurricanes.

It is not only seen on television, it is a reality. Images do not need captions!

Climate change is one of the most dangerous environmental problems. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) reminds us that this phenomenon prevents sustainable development, is an obstacle to ending poverty and puts food security at risk.

Predictions

2021-03-05 21:25:33 UTC

1. Protect and preserve the source of human health: nature
2. Invest in essential services, from water and sanitation to clean energy in sanitary facilities
3. Ensure a fast and healthy energy transition.
4. Promote healthy and sustainable food systems.
5. Build healthy and livable cities.
6. Stop using public money to finance pollution
7.A global movement for health and the environment

Solutions to reduce environmental pollution

2021-03-05 21:26:56 UTC

1.Reuse
2.Recycle
3 plant and care for trees
4.environmental pollution
5.Opt for reusable products

GLOBAL WARMING

2021-03-05 22:12:54 UTC

What is Global Warming

2021-03-05 22:21:18 UTC

Global warming consists of the increase in the temperature of the earth, which is reflected in the oceans and the atmosphere, mainly caused by the emission of greenhouse gases emitted by human activity.

2021-03-05 22:24:52 UTC

Global warming has existed forever, however, due to massive human activities and emissions this phenomenon has increased, especially the burning of fossil fuels and changes in land use, such as deforestation, as well as various other secondary sources

2021-03-05 22:26:02 UTC

2021-03-05 22:29:01 UTC

Global warming is caused by two types of causes: natural and man-made.

Natural causes of global warming

2021-03-05 22:30:00 UTC

The natural ones, despite being present for thousands of years, are not enough to make climatic changes.

2021-03-05 22:31:33 UTC

Man-made causes of global warming

2021-03-05 22:31:59 UTC

Man-made causes refer mainly to greenhouse gases, which are mostly caused by emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4), although there are many others

Consequences of global warming

2021-03-05 22:33:30 UTC

Melting of the glaciers: This will cause the sea level to rise considerably, causing floods and leaving us without the main reserve of fresh water on the planet.

Climate change: It is caused by the gases accumulated in the atmosphere that increase the temperature, affecting the climates of different geographical areas and the flora and fauna found there.

Change in the hydrological cycle: The repercussions of this point range from a change in the pH of the water causing acid rain to hurricanes and more intense storms due to heat.

Lack of food: This would only affect less developed countries that are totally dependent on agricultural activities, as the heat destroys crops or makes water for irrigation scarce

How to combat global warming?

2021-03-05 22:36:22 UTC

Regulate CO2 emissions: Try to avoid the use of cars using bicycles or opting to change our conventional car for an electric or hybrid one.

Control the emissions caused by the industry in general since the amounts of these are exaggerated.

Plant more trees: By doing this, the excess CO2 in the environment would begin to decrease and the trees would act as thermoregulators.

Reduce the use of electricity: Avoid leaving lights on and disconnecting electrical appliances when they are not in use, exchanging common bulbs for LED bulbs that have a much lower energy consumption.

Generate less garbage: When buying a product, keep in mind if it can be reused or recycled, prefer glass packaging instead of plastic since the former are much easier to recycle or buy biodegradable disposables.

PREDICTIONS 1.Earth's average temperature increase of 0.2 degrees Celsius per decade (forecast). 2.Reduction in the surface of glaciers and, as a consequence, raising the water level of the seas and oceans. 3.Possible flooding of areas near the sea or islands. 4.Ecosystems affected by the change in climate, so that plants and animals must adapt to a new situation. 5.Decrease in water resources due to droughts and greater evaporation of water, certain fertile areas could become deserts. 6.Negative impact on agriculture and livestock due to changes in rainfall.

2021-03-06 02:29:30 UTC

2021-03-06 02:44:48 UTC

It is the fire that spreads uncontrollably in forest or wild land, affecting vegetable fuels, flora and fauna.

What If we do nothing to stop wildfires?

2021-03-06 02:48:30 UTC

+ Smoke will make humans sick
+ Destroy some ecosystems
+ Wildfires release gases that help climate change
+ There are millionaire losses
+ Some animals could have become extinct
+ Cause deforestation
+ There are human deaths

What can we do to solve the problem?

2021-03-06 03:09:17 UTC

+ Don´t throw cigarettes if you are on the road and much less in the forest
+ Don´t throw garbage, especially glass bottles
+ Don´t make bonfires if you are in the forest
+ Store flammable liquids in protected areas
