Oceans and water pollution

Water Scarcity

The global water crisis is at an inflection point. How do we price our most valuable resource, while also ensuring access to it as a human right? Is There a Relationship Between Poverty and a Lack of Clean Drinkable Water? Does water scarcity have an impact on human health? If so, what are some of the consequences? Why are water’s unique properties so important for life as we know it?

Students learned and discussed about the water cycle and water crisis affecting many parts of the globe, learned about engineers working on a solution to reducing water use via gray water, and developed a presentation explaining a problem and solution related to water and and proposals for ocean cleanup. After students learn more about the issue, they share, compare and contrast possible solutions.
