5 New Facts Regarding Water

1. Once evaporated, a water molecule spends ten days in the air.

Honestly, I did not know this fact about water and I found it very helpful. The moment I read this article I thought of a way it could help us gather water. If we knew how much time the molecules stayed in the air, we could predict where the rain would go and how strong it would be. Maybe be could build some sort of machine who could collect the rain and we could have fresh water. In this way water supply could increase. I think that this perfectly connects with the water video due to the fact that it can help the increase of fresh water. It also can connect with Macedonia. My country could take some risks and try to use this useful fact.


2. Drinking 5 glasses of water daily can decrease the risk of breast cancer by 79 %, and one is 50 % less likely to develop bladder cancer.

I chose this fact because I found the information very interesting. I could not believe that drinking water can actually decrease the likability of getting cancer. I am really curious why this information is not so known because I believe it can help many people that fear these types of cancers. I am really interested in how the water banishes these cancers. I personally think this is a very important fact and sooner or later it should appear on the news. This can connect to the video because it is one way fresh water is wasted but it used for good deeds. Macedonia could also acquire this fact and start putting it into use.


3. A human being can go without food for a month, but can go without water for a week.

This fact really sums up the whole problem with water. It basically states that food is much less important than water and sadly, we have much more food than water. Our water resources are slowly going down by the numbers and soon finding water will become an impossible task. This is why the conservation of water is a crucial thing in the world. I my opinion this fact is basically what the whole movie is trying to tell you, to preserve the water!!! This information should also quickly spread through Macedonia and more people should value water more than anything else.


4.There are about 70000 contaminants of water.

This article was very interesting it blew my mind with what I actually already knew. Its complicated to explain. As we all know, there are many pollutants of water but no one would say there are 70000!!! I think this is absurd and whoever those pollutants are, they should be stopped. Awareness of these contaminants should arise and people should start paying attention to the water. I think this is also a perfect match with the topics we are learning in class. I think that Macedonia should also raise awareness and pay more attention to the Macedonian bodies of water.

5. 70 % of the worlds fresh water is devoted to agriculture.

I finally chose this one because I wanted to state how the fresh water is not organized. As we all know, water is a necessity to life. Now if we use this water for agriculture, there is not gonna be enough for the world. Due to this fact, the fresh water should be divided into proper groups so their is enough for everything and everybody. I think this fact connects to the video in a way of organization and how the fresh water of the world should be divided. Macedonia also has many farms and agriculture and this fact is pointed toward my country. People should start thinking of how they treat the FRESH water.
