Winning essay
Because of the steady increase
of the world's population,
(eighty-one millton annually),
conservation is a world project to
save all our natural resources for
all _our needs. There are eight
kinds of conservation: (1.) soil,
(2.) water, (3.) forest, (4.)
wildlife, (5.) grazing lands, (6.)
mineral, (7.) recreation, and (8.)
urban areas. Each and every one
of these individual projects are
needed so we can feed, clothe and
shelter the two hundred and
twenty thousand persons that are
born every day.
I chose to write about water
pollution because it is the most
important conservation problem
in the world. Water is needed for
drink, cleanse ourselves and
shelter, water our crops and
produce electricity. Even though
water makes up approximately
three-quarters of the earth's
surface, only three percent is
fresh, usable water, and that
small amount is our only source
unless the salt is removed from
the ocean water.
Since the demand for fresh
water increases every day, all
our water must be used wisely
and carefully, so we have enough
left for future requirements.
Scientists across the world are
experimenting with improved
methods to purify polluted water.
Industries and governments are
spending thousands of dollars
every year to prevent depositing
refuse in fresh water and to find
ways of recycling the waste
products for other uses. Even
Mother Nature herself conserves
water by having the vegetation
absorbing rain water and holding
it to the ground. If there wasn't
such a natural cycle, a rapid run-
off would occur. This would cause
floods, remove valuable topsoil,
and would only leave a small
amount of water for use in dry
seasons.
To conserve water, people may
protect plant life, and reproduce
them in barren areas. Also, dams
prevent floods by controlling the
flow of water.
Dumping refuse in the lakes
and rivers is not the only water
pollution. Also, people upset the
natural cycle of water by plan-
ting crops, and building factories
and homes. This may destroy the
natural plant cover already
growing there and reduce the
natural storage in the ground and
increase the amount of run-off.
In my opinion, water con-
servation is one of man's most
pressing problems for the present
and the future. Without water,
the world would literally die
because all life forms are
dependent on water. So, a good
motto would be: Conserve water.
Your life may depend on it!
