Stabalize world population? End Poverty? Government will have to act cooperatively, not competitvely in issues regarding water? Or all of the Above?

In the truth the subject is for a quarrel on “the question of the water and the future of our planet” that we will make in the next lesson to my course of English. I live in Brazil, and have come back to frequent lessons and exercises conversational (in the CCAA) since I intend to make interchange in the way of this year, therefore, if of some form they will be able to say a little the respect, they are felt exempts, I I would be immensely satisfied case appear some good ideas this way (in an English well clearly, obviously). They look for not to shorten excessively, in the remaining portion, debtor.

Since already I am thankful.

It would most likely take a multi-front solution.

First, state and federal government need to be more involved. Local governments only look out for themselves. There are many instances in which locals have blocked off or used absurdly large amounts of water without replacing it. This takes away from others that are in the region. State and federal government needs to establish rights for water usage. These rights should be able to be sold in case one region needs more water.

Local governments should charge those who use excessive water more. People waste water because it does not cost very much. Only so much is needed. That amount should remain relatively cheap. Theexcess used should be charged at a premium. If you want people to learn, you have to hit them where it matters most, their checkbooks.

Stabilizing world population is a major issue on its own. It would require an end to poverty. This would require more education and more charity from more wealthy nations so that they can get their economies started. Stabilizing the world's population would definitely help, but it would take a great deal of time. It's a long-run solution to compliment the short-run solution of more state and federal legislation.

Stabilizing world population is important; however, the main problem is in distribution. In places like California, water from the north is diverted to the south; however, there are controls to prevent certain areas from being overdeveloped (no development allowed unless it can be supported by water, etc.)
In other areas of the world, such controls are either not in place, or not enforced. Take Israel for example, their water source is in high demand as a result of other competing (and often hostile) neighbors...wars can start as a result of water.

Cheaper methods of desalination. Most water on Earth is salt water. Desalination is currently an expensive process. If you reduce the cost all nations will be able to afford to process the oceans and seas to fulfill their water needs.

All that we would need is for the ice caps to melt. Then there would be more than enough water for all people for more than 100 years.
Whatever you decide, I would recommend keeping the Guvimint out of it.

REDUCE AND STABILIZE POPULATION. IT'S THE NO. ONE REASON FOR ALL THE TROUBLE IN THE WORLD, FOLLOWED VERY CLOSELY BY RELIGIOUS FANATICS , WHICH ARE FOUND, MOST UNFORTUNATELY IN ALL RELIGIONS.
