So this is my presentation for this is my presentation

for Envirothon.

I wasn't able to be a school for the past

today, so I wasn't able to present.

So I thought that this would just be the best

way to get it to you.

Hopefully I can get it to you, but anyway, here

is my presentation.

So me and Norman, we did a presentation on the

values of lodger and things like water pollution in places

without water and stuff like that.

Thank you.

So the first slide we have here kind of talks

about water pollution?

Water pollution is a is well, what is what?

Sorry. What is the water pollution?

Water pollution is something that occurs when harmful substances, usually

chemicals or things like microorganisms contaminate contaminate a water source.

Okay. And when these chemicals into the water, it ruins

the water quality and it makes it talks this and

dangerous for the environment.

It's also, as I said, it's also very dangerous.

It's water pollution can suffocate fish and other aquatic animals.

Not only does it hurt the fish and other aquatic

animals that can hurt land animals that drink from like

streams, ponds like stuff like that.

It can hurt them, too, because they have because they

have to drink from that water.

And if it's polluted, it can hurt them.

Cause problems and stuff like that.

It would just not be very good.

Water pollution is also very dangerous for humans.

Uh, water pollution, Water pollution kills more people a year

than all forms of violence combined, which is a pretty

and things thio statistic to me.

So water, I'd like to say it's taking for granted.

We just think it since we live in America, where

we usually have fresh water to drink and we don't

have to worry, we don't have to worry.

We just take it for granted.

So he, um we can talk about we for one.

Everyone knows this.

We can't live without water.

We needed every day we needed.

We needed to drink.

We needed for stuff like showers to wash our clothes.

The list goes, owns.

Um, I've already went over.

We need water for everything.

So we also need to savor every last drop.

So, yeah, putting water the waste.

It's not a good thing, even though that, like we

do have basically an unlimited source of water.

We probably We don't need to put it toe waste.

Like, for instance, what I'm gonna be talking about in

the next slide show.

Nine. Ah, place in, uh, eastern southeastern.

Adama is a place in India, but that they don't

have ah lot of it.

The place doesn't have fresh drinking water, and it's a

big problem.

So whenever we, like, pour a glass of water down

the drain that we don't wanna, that we don't want

to drink or we don't want to finish.

It's a big waste.

And we probably shouldn't be doing that because, well, again,

places like Shane, I don't have the They don't have

the ability.

Really. I guess you could say to do that.

So we just need to savor every last drop.

We need to remember that all did not Every place

has fresh drinking.

Also sells.

They don't work without water.

Cells need water to survive.

Need water to survive.

And we are everything is made out of cell.

So if the cells don't have waters, you survive.

I guess you could say it's hard for us to

survive. Well, it's impossible.

Whatever. So no water, no food so if we don't

have water, you need water till water plants.

You need it.

Want to grow plants?

You need it.

Water is needed for, uh, animals toe animals to drink.

And if animals aren't able to drink it, they'll die.

I guess dehydration.

And if you don't have animals But then that's another

source of feudal.

So it kind of just ruins, I guess the food

chain because Well, yeah, You could say it ruins the

food chain.

It ruins the food chain because if you don't have

water well, then you don't have food of any kind.

You don't have vegetables, don't have fruit, don't have meat,

don't have any of the protein that you need in

everyday life.

Yes, and every living thing needs water.

I've kind of already went over that.

Okay, So as I was already talking about, I'm going

to be talking about Shanae right here.

So in China, it's it's a large city, I guess,

of about five million people.

And there's very little Not very well Yeah, there's very

little waters.

Definitely not enough for all five million of the people.

Um, the walk the water there.

It's such a the well, the place is constantly growing

that they have to use.

They have to like filling lakes, kind of and have

less water because they need more land.

It's too valuable to be put to waste, so they

have to make more land out of the water so

they can build more houses, apartments and stuff like that.

Um, also there, showers are a privilege.

Showers here are kind of just given the showers there.

Some people have to forgo having a shower every day

if they don't have to go somewhere like work.

Also there, since, uh, on the coast, they have they

have to spend a lot of money each year on

turning seawater to drinkable water.

Or the problem would just be forced.

And that those that is kind of bad, because places

like India, they aren't as fortunate.

It's places like America don't have as much money and

stuff like that.

But they have to do what they have to do

for their people to live also in right and, uh,

thunderstorms, rain shower, stuff like that.

The buildings have to catch the water, catch the water

so they can save going back to last side where

they have to stay for every last drop.

Also here kind of.

It's kind of strange, but it's true.

Some people well, water here is almost more valuable than

money because, um, quote from something that this isn't the

exact quote, but it said, uh, instead of people going

to the city for money, they now go for water

because in the city waters, a little bit more abundant

than it would be in like smaller places and should

not Okay, and groundwater here is also considered a drinkable

water, and that's not very good from I mean, you

could drink it, but it can have some side effects

and it's just all around, not the best and should.

I also isn't the only place the other place.

There's other places, like in Africa and around the world,

like Mozambique A in Africa.

I think 52.7% of the population doesn't have fresh drinking

water.*** are I don't e.

I don't know how to say it.

Sorry, but it's like 54.2% off.

Its population does not have water either.

Ethiopia, 60.9% off.

People do not have fresh drinking everyday fresh drinking water.

Somalia, 60% of the population doesn't have fresh drinking water,

and then goal of 59% doesn't have fresh drinking water.

And then that's kind of going on to the 2nd

1. 11% of the Earth's population doesn't have drinkable water,

which is a big problem, and a lot of people

don't realize that.

Yeah, so right here is a graph.

This is the place.

It kind of just shows what places have drinkable water

everyday drinkable water You can see over here in America,

North America area.

It's usually it's usually it's really dark, which means we

have fresh drinking.

Water is fresh drinking water every day water.

But then you come over here into Africa.

You can see that most of it doesn't have.

It doesn't have drinkable water or the best quality of

water. With the exception of South Africa down here, um,

you can see that places these places have a really

hard time isn't up there in Russia.

It has a hard time to.

It's just not It's not great.

It's not good, but just a graph to show what

place is.

Don't have drinkable everyday drink drinking water.

Here's another graph of water pollution show in the, uh,

you can see up here in kind of in Russia,

little places in America.

The water pollution is worse than in places.

It's what it's not worse, but it's like, really bad.

It's really bad, doesn't have good drinking water and it's

dangerous. You can see up there in northern Russia, top

of Russia.

It's like really dark.

And that's not good, cause the water so polluted that

it's almost undrinkable.

Yeah, mhm.

Then the last side, just my citations where we got

all of the information from And, yeah, so that's the

end of my presentation.

I know it took a really long time, but I

just wanted to get everything down.

So I don't know if you're gonna show this in

front of the class, but yeah,
