5. Next time rain drops fall on you, think about where that water might have been just a few days ago.

6. Water is a powerful force on Earth’s surface

7. Water is critical to life…how long can you survive without it?

8. It is a precious resource we often take for granted

9. It is sacred to some : The Maya believed natural wells, such as the Xkeken cenote in Mexico's Yucatán, led to the underworld.

15. Where is water found? 71% of earth is covered in water 97% of that is in oceans Most of the remaining 3% fresh, mainly in ice caps and glaciers.

16. Why is water a limited resource?

Surface Water Fresh water on Earth’s land Fresh water on Earth’s land Rivers Rivers Lakes Lakes Streams Streams Ponds Ponds Critical for: drinking, transportation, waste removal, industry, food, farming, recreation Critical for: drinking, transportation, waste removal, industry, food, farming, recreation

18. Watershed: an area of land that is drained by a single river Bathtub analogy How can a farmer in NY State Impact drinking water in Camden? Who should set pollution laws LOCAL, SATE, FEDERAL?

Describe ways to increase water supplies Identify ways to conserve water TERMS: potable, pathogen, dam, reservoir, desalinization

35. Aylito Binayo's feet know the mountain. Even at four in the morning she can run down the rocks to the river by starlight alone and climb the steep mountain back up to her village with 50 pounds of water on her back. She has made this journey three times a day for nearly all her 25 years. So has every other woman in her village of Foro, in the Konso district of southwestern Ethiopia. Binayo dropped out of school when she was eight years old, in part because she had to help her mother fetch water from the Toiro River. The water is dirty and unsafe to drink; every year that the ongoing drought continues, the once mighty river grows more exhausted. But it is the only water Foro has ever had.

36. According to the U.N., 1 billion people do not have access to clean, reliable fresh water

37. How Much Water Do You Use Average person in U.S. uses about 80 gallons a day

38. What can you learn from this chart?

39. How Much Water Is Needed http://environment.nationalgeographic.com/envir onment/freshwater/embedded-water/ Your water footprint http://environment.nationalgeographic.com/envir onment/freshwater/water-footprint-calculator/

40. Making Water Safe Potable: safe to drink Most water needs to be treated Pathogens: organisms that cause diseases Bacteria, viruses, worms

42. Uses of Water Industrial Water Use 19% of worldwide water use Cooling power plants To make “stuff”

44. Uses of Water Agriculture: 67% of worldwide water use Irrigation: providing water to plants 80 gallons to produce 1 ear of corn 1 lb. beef = 1,000 gal. LOTS OF WATER

45. Irrigation

46. Drip Irrigation, reduces that number greatly As much as 80% normally evaporates

47. Water Management Humans have altered water flow for thousands of years Engineering Dams, canals, pipes, towers bring water to where it is needed

49. California aqueduct brings water hundreds of miles, across deserts, mountains

50. Dams and Reservoirs Reservoir: an artificial lake often behind a dam Dams: Flood control Recreation Supply water Generate electricity

51. Large losses of water through evaporation Large losses of water through evaporation Flooded land destroys forests or cropland and displaces people Flooded land destroys forests or cropland and displaces people Downstream flooding is reduced Downstream cropland and estuaries are deprived of nutrient-rich silt Downstream cropland and estuaries are deprived of nutrient-rich silt Reservoir is useful for recreation and fishing Can produce cheap electricity (hydropower) Migration and spawning of some fish are disrupted Provides water for year-round irrigation of cropland Pros and Cons of Dams

53. Desalinization Removing salt from salt water Has a lot of promise Very energy intensive Very expensive What to do with waste? Future?

55. Water Conservation Fastest, easiest way to increase water supplies is to use less water Agriculture Industry At home What are some ways you can conserve water?

57. Section 2 Review Identify how water is used in home, industry and agriculture. Explain how and why water is treated before coming to your home. Describe ways to increase water supplies Identify ways to conserve water TERMS: potable, pathogen, dam, reservoir, desalinization

59. Section 3: Water Pollution GOALS: Compare point-sources and non-point sources of water pollution Describe the 5 classifications of water pollution Explain why it is difficult to clean up groundwater What does the Clean Water Act do? TERMS: water pollution, point-source, non- point source, wastewater, biomagnification, eutrophication

60. Freshwater animals are vanishing faster than those on land or at sea.

61. What is Water Pollution? Water Pollution: is the introduction of chemical, physical, or biological substances that affects organisms that depend upon it Many types of water pollution

63. Point Source Pollution coming from one single place Leaking tanker Pipe from a factory Leaking underground storage tank Can easily be ID and traced

64. Point Sources are usually easily identified

65. Non-Point Source Comes from various sources that are hard to identify and may be spread over a large area Runoff from farms Runoff from cities Hard to ID Hard t o control HUGE PROBLEM

66. How can a farmer in MT affect a shrimp farmer in Louisiana? NON-Point

67. NONPOINT SOURCES Urban streets Suburban development Wastewater treatment plant Rural homes Cropland Factory Animal feedlot POINT SOURCES Point vs Non-Point

68. Types of Water Pollution 1) Wastewater Water that flows down the drain What’s in it? Where does it go? (out- of-sight, out-of-mind) Is it harmful?

69. Wastewater Treatment

72. 2) Eutrophication Too many nutrients (nitrogen and phosphorous) in the water causes algal blooms and decreased oxygen in water Causes “dead zones” in water Little or no oxygen

73. Eutrophication

74. 3) Thermal Pollution Occurs when temperature of water rises rapidly Power plants Factories cooling equipment Causes fish kills Decreases oxygen in water

76. 4) Groundwater Pollution Pollution that percolates down from land or surface water pollution Fertilizers, pesticides, leaking underground tanks Many leaking underground tanks

77. What would make groundwater pollution hard to clean up?

80. 5) Ocean Pollution Pollutants directly or indirectly put into oceans Oil spills Runoff River pollution Cruise Ships Development along coasts Increasingly a problem

82. Cleaning Up Water Pollution 1969 Cuyahoga River in Cleveland caught fire 1972 Congress passes Clean Water Act 1970s Environmental Activism/Awareness

83. Cleaning Up Water Pollution Clean Water Act of 1972 was to “restore and maintain the physical, chemical and biological integrity of the nation’s water.” Fishable and Swim able Better, but… still many polluted water bodies

84. Section 3 Review GOALS: Compare point-sources and non-point sources of water pollution Describe the 5 classifications of water pollution Explain why it is difficult to clean up groundwater What does the Clean Water Act do?
