Beside what we humans may believe only 2.5 percent of water on the earth is freshwater. As well as that being known‚ only very little of the water on earth is even drinkable‚ and the parts that are‚ are being consumed faster than they are being replenished. A

Located near the Gir Wildlife Sanctuary in the Kodinar Region‚ the ecological balance of the area was of supreme importance as it was a crucial habitat for the fast dwindling Asiatic Lion population. Over withdrawal of freshwater and unregulated usage of land in this region caused a quick depletion of water table and the water salinity levels sky rocketed

This serious issue leads to lower quantity and quality of freshwater resources. While most causes are human-related‚ others are uncontrollable. Population Growth * An increase in people means more water usage for bathing‚ washing dishes‚ cooking and other activities. World population tripled in the 1900s‚ resulting

Introduction: Stickleback are most commonly found in the ocean‚ but can be found in some freshwater lakes. Sticklebacks are noticeable by the presence of isolated spines in the dorsal fin and a number of lateral bony plates known as scutes. Their maximum length is about four inches‚ but few of them are more than three inches long. They mature

Water is a finite resource which means that the total amount of water in the planet is only limited. Its supply remains the same and yet human population recently grows resulting to a decrease of available amount of freshwater per person. The relatively small amount of available freshwater elaborates on how critical it is for everyone to help preserve and maintain clean‚ healthy lakes and streams‚ our sources of water. Water is mostly now being wasted because it is under-priced. We do not realize the

The inflow of both seawater and freshwater provide high levels of nutrients in both the water column and sediment‚ making estuaries among the most productive natural habitats in the world.[2] An estuary is a partly enclosed coastal body of water with one or more rivers or streams flowing

The Algae Island It’s an island made entirely of seaweed‚ full of meerkats and freshwater ponds. It gets even stranger when dead fish rise to the surface of the ponds at night and disappear by morning. At first Pi thinks the island is a delusion‚ “I was getting used to my delusion. To make it last I refrained from putting a strain on it; when the lifeboat nudged the island‚ I did not move‚ only continued to dream.” But Martel spends too long with the island for it to just be a delusion.
