Question

A letter to congressman about water pollution?

Answer 1

Global warming will evaporate all water. Pollution not a problem.

Answer 2

Everybody always runs to the government ,but it is the PEOPLE who are doing most of the contamination apart from Industry

why not blame God ,and then we could all relax

Only He does not want to know

for 5 years i have been working for the citizans council of a mexican town and for 1 year as a Environmental consultant for the municipality

on many ocasions i have asked the church and the padres ,to talk to their flock about not poluting their world ,but they refuse to even come   to the meetings.

the churches job it to prepare people for death ,the state of the planet does not concern them

FIRSTHAND CONTAMINATION

Rivers and Lagoons

millions of batteries are thrown in the rivers and Lagoons by night fishermen

1 small penlight battery contaminate 10.000 litres of water

raw sewage added to water flows like cannals and rivers ,

trash dumped on rivers edges ,

Industry contaminates practically unchecked

farmers using agro chemicals (fertilizers ,herbicides & pesticides)then deforrest and the rains washing the topsoils impregnated with contaminants into the rivers

thousands of women that do the washing in rivers using harmfull detergents.

farmers dump acidic coffee husk into the waters which kills millions of fish ,

on the coasts

oil spills that contaminate coastal waters,

Oceans

industrial wastes that are dumped into deep oceanic trenches

SECONDARY POLUTION

changes in water temperature enhances harmfull algae,(remember the red tide)

and kills many fish who are critical to temperature ,when sea water enters lagoons here in Mexico many fish die ,due to sudden temperature changes

also warm water releases carbon gasses

cold water absorbs them

SOLUTIONS

wetlands like swamps have always been Natures natural filters for natural water flows,aquatic plants clean the water ,the anchored plants as well as the floating ones

we should redesign wetland flora with in natural water systems to help contra contamination.

stop sewage systems that connect to natural water flows ,forbid and police the dumping of rubbish on waters edges ,

the best way is through the educational systems ,starting at kiddy schools and rising in intensity with progression.

but in Mexico this is not accepted because this kind of education is not in the ciriculum.

In short the ways to protect the waters is

laws and punishment ,government vigilence ,education ,

alternative farming methods away from using chemicals ,which eventually end up in the ground water supplies

to merely clean polution or try to clean is never effective because of population growth ,it gets worse by the year ,an impossible task

we must attack at the roots and that is the contaminating mentality

Answer 3

water is the basic necessity for all life.  all the water that the world will ever have is already here on the planet and the more that is polluted, the less there is to sustain life on earth.  as the global population increases this means that what's left of the unpolluted water must be used by a growing number of people and all other life on earth.  this makes it one of the most valuable resources we have and why it is important to eliminate as many of the sources of water pollution as quickly as we can.
