The amount of drinkable water for people is decreasing. Why is this? What can be done?

The lack of enough drinkable
water
has become one of the most serious issues of our society and it eventually might even lead to a global drought. Various reasons have led to
this
situation, but,

there are some measures we can take to ameliorate
this
issue. As it comes to the reasons why
this
is happening, perhaps one of the main ones is industrial waste. Over the years, people have dumped their waste into the rivers, canals etc. rather than throwing it inappropriate garbage,
thus
polluting the freshwater.
For instance
, many rivers providing fresh
water
have become so much polluted that they can no longer be useful for drinking, causing drinkable
water
to decrease. The other reason is climate change and global warming. Many
water
sources are decreasing naturally because of changes in the temperature, leading to a situation where only a little amount of
water
might be available for humans and animals in the near future. Despite the causes, there are several solutions that we can do, in order to save
water
and prevent future disasters. One of the
first
things that we can do is inform and educate the population about the importance of
water
and the possible outcomes of them polluting natural sources
such
as rivers etc.
For example

can be a wise start, because the root of our future depends on the new generation. The government of developing or developed countries should
also
put a penalty against those companies or industry units that pollute sanitary
water
. Other measures that we can take is to stop illegal hunting, logging or using too many plastic products so that we can try to stop the progression of climate change, which is a major factor in the decreasing drinkable
water
. In conclusion,
although
freshwater is decreasing because of climate change and humans invading and polluting freshwater sources, there still are solutions
such
as better education, restricting laws and regulations to prevent
further
catastrophes.

Use a variety of complex and simple sentences

You should use complex sentences in your writing, but it does not mean that you should try to make all of our sentences complex.

‘Complex’ sentences are not actually very complex; they are just two or more simple sentences put together. Putting them together makes the essay more coherent and cohesive.

Examples:

I really want to study but I’m too tired.

I wore a warm coat because the weather was cold.

If action is not taken soon on climate change, global warming will get worse.
