Getting Thirsty
Water covers 75% of the
Earth’s surface, but most of it contains high concentrations of salt and is
unavailable. Desalination is expensive for developing countries, making that
salt water unsuitable for consumption or irrigation. Consequently, access to
fresh water is a growing issue as countries share the same water sources. This
even has the potential to become an issue of national security.
Think of the issues that
come from circumstances in which countries share the same water source. For
example, consider disputes over the Jordan river between Jordan and Israel, or
the Tigris River between Iraq and Turkey.
Now consider what would
happen if your state or community had only limited fresh water access. How
involved do you feel local governments should be in controlling water access?
