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.
The topic of the consumption of freshwater has been controversial. Some
people
believe that they can consume fresh water
as much as they want, whereas
I agree with those who think that the freshwater water
supply should be restricted by the government
because the sources are limited.
On the one hand, it is commonly believed that people
consume fresh water
freely without awareness. The most important reason is that people
believe that they have paid for the water
bill so they should be able to use the service as much as they want. To illustrate this
, in recent news, it has been reported that the water
companies have been providing 80% of clean water
to the household for many years. The companies have increased service charges every year; therefore
that may make people
think about whether it is right to use what they have paid for.
On the other hand
, it seems to me that the sources of fresh water
are limited. So that freshwater consumption should be restricted by the government
. For example
, according to
the latest study conducted by Bangkok University, it was revealed that water
covers about 71% of the earth's surface. But only 3% of that water
is freshwater. Furthermore
, some sources of that are not even clean water
or useable. In the long term, if we continue to use fresh water
without awareness, we will lack fresh water
in the future. Consequently
, the government
should make the restriction on using fresh water
in the household and industries, and also
educate people
to be aware of lacking fresh water
. I agree with this
point because the government
has the power to restrict the consumption of fresh water
.
In conclusion, having considered both sides of this
topic, although
people
have the right to consume fresh water
in their daily living as much as they want, I agree with those who think that the government
should make restrictions to control using water
. I strongly support that as the resources of fresh water
are limited.Submitted by nuiachara265 on
