Essay title: Water Pollution Problems in Our Community
Water Pollution problems in our community.
Water resource issues in the United States have become major problem in the environmental fishing areas throughout decades. Water pollutions are one of the many problems occurring in our oceans. Pollution is large bodies of water contaminated by human’s activities. It is polluted when the water is not able to be used due to contamination. There are many causes for water pollution, the two general causes direct sources which come from factories and boats that release human waste and oils into our waters, and indirect sources which are contaminations entered from soils or groundwater systems. Water pollutants in our community are a water resource problem that can be limited with the help of our society.
The Declining Fish stock video is describing water resource problems in our seas due to fisherman fishing in certain areas of the sea. Environmentalists believe time is running out for congressional approval of areas being restricted to the fisherman. Over fishing is a great cause of our oceans being stripped of ninety percent of big fish. After the study of bigger fish was being pulled from the seas allowing competition among fisherman to pull for the remaining ten percent, because of this our sea is not safe as people thought them to be. Over fishing is more destructive to the ocean than contamination or
degrading waters because with the lower levels of fish it is not allowing the fish to recover and reform.
My plans for sustaining water pollution problems in my community is to Identify and research the effects of water pollutants, Develop an education program about the cause and effects of water pollution, schedule a presentation day and time, and invite community leaders and participants. Using this plan I intend to maintain the water resource problems in our oceans and seas through the research and education of my community.
ACTION ITEMS
ACTION STEPS TIMELINE
Identify the effects of water pollution
Attend the environmental science meetings identifying the water pollutions in our community. Research websites and local journals to identify the effects our community experiences. I will attend next week meeting on environmental health issues in our waters. In week two I will attend the meeting. In month 1-2 I will have completed identifying the effects of water pollutions.
Research the causes of water pollutions Review and document websites, that provides water pollutants. Find examples through environmental scientist to document facts on the toxic found in the waters This would be considered “ongoing”
Develop an education program about water pollution. Develop a presentation about the importance of cleaning our waters up. Define how the pollutants in our waters can harm us as humans. Research areas of my community to observe the things that may be involved with the pollution in our area. In the months of 1-3 I will put together the major points for my presentation. I will attend a meeting in month 1
Schedule a presentation day and time I will attend a meeting for the environmental science issues in my community. I will also put together a PowerPoint presentation to show the public how pollution is and will take over our oceans if we do not act on what is causing our waters to become polluted. In the months of 1-4. I will schedule appointments with the environmental science association to help with my presentation.
Invite community participants to support my plans for healthier waters in my community. I will hand out flyers regarding a memo for participants to come and support the problems with pollution in our community waters. I will also request
