    Fresh water is one of the most important requirements for life on Earth. It is important for people’s health that they have access to a sufficient quantity and quality of water.

  • Cultural changes are hard to identify because they happen slowly.
  • Pop culture is popular commercial culture, such as television, film and music.
  • Disney is an example of a global media organisation.
  • When large media companies export their entertainment, they also export the values contained within the movie, music, shows and games. These values and attitudes then filter through into the receiving culture.
  • When programs directly conflict with the values of a culture, they need to be changed so they are less offensive and more understood.
