Band 7.5

Some people think that fresh water should be freely available, while others believe governments should tightly control the use of fresh water as it is limited resource. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

#people #water #governments #control #resource
People
 are divided over the opinion that there should be no restriction on the
use
 of fresh
water
 and others think that fresh
water
 usage should be tightly controlled by the government as it is a limited resource. I will discuss both views and
then
 provide my opinion.
Firstly
 I will discuss why it should be controlled. As it is a limited resource, there is a possibility of freshwater resources being completely drained. If
this
 happens there will be no
water
 available for future generations to drink and their survival will be impossible. With the increasing population, the need for drinking
water
 will increase and
this
 will deplete the resource even
further
. Knowing that fresh
water
 is freely available
people
 tend to
use
 it for unnecessary
things
 like washing cars, homes and many other
things
. Controlling the usage of fresh
water
 will avoid
this
 wastage. Fresh
water
 is a basic necessity for any human being to survive and it should be available freely to everyone. Many day-to-day activities are dependent on the availability of fresh like cooking, drinking and so on. We cannot calculate the exact amount of fresh
water
 required by every individual and some
people
 need more
water
 than required by an average person. So restricting the amount of fresh
water
 for individuals will result in
people
 avoiding performing basic
things
 like drinking writer and bathing which can lead to new problems. Agriculture is highly dependent on
water
 and if sufficient rains do not occur, many times farmers
use
 fresh
water
 for irrigation. So limiting it will
also
 have an impact on farming In conclusion, I would like to say that, freshwater should not be controlled as many
things
 depend on it and it is impossible to calculate the exact amount needed by everyone. At the same time,
people
 should be made aware of the wastage of
water
 and should be encouraged to avoid its unnecessary
use
.
