WATER, NATURE, PLANET EARTH. English Activity. Yerson Leandro Laverde.
  1. Not many people have access to water -as it is introduced by the information on the website-, it's mainly caused by high levels of demography, and poor infraestructure for the cities to urbanize correctly. Most institutions neglect sanitation and hygiene, since it presents a big issue to be capable of distributing to such big numbers and in equal quantities. We have the believe that water is a renewable source where we can suck everything we want from it, but it only happens if properly regulated. And we know this isn't the case.
    1. How valuable is water to people?
      1. It's hard to tell, since water is oftenly misused for many situations that don't belong to the case, like using it to for the mere purpose of throwing it. I'd say we treat it as something to purchase and simply a service, more than recognizing its big importance.
      2. How valuable is water to the economy?
        1. Water here costs like 500 pesos per unit (the price depends of the size). But it's truly important to bussiness because it's literally used for anything: Agriculture, sell 'n' buy offers, extinguish fires, bath with it, etc... Capitalism searched for a product that everyone would need no matter what, and they found it.
        2. How valuable is water to the environment?
          1. Well, this is an obvious cuestion; since water it's the only source of hydration, we can't expect to encounter alternatives to replace it. So it has a big impact into life's development, making it the top thing for us to give it the importance it deserves.
          2. How valuable is water to societies?
            1. Very, since drinking is commonly a tradition where I'm from, this is due to the great familiarization of the well recognized Colombian's social life
            2. How valuable is water to you?
              1. As a human being, I give it the top value for the "resources chart", and personally, I'm very worried of what will happen in the future if this problem keeps going further.
