Watershed Protection
We humans drink water. We bathe in water. We wash our clothes and dishes in water. Water is the world's top resource and it makes up the majority of our human body. Therefore, water is a major necessity for our population to survive. Water will run out and its cycle from rain to the sea will end unless we protect our watersheds. Watersheds are the lands underneath us that channel water to the rivers and seas that continue the water cycle. Thus, protecting our watersheds is necessary and we are ways to protect and exploit this cause.
The cause for the protection of our watersheds are a definite must. By stopping pollution in a single community could mean many decades more the future generations could be using water! Likewise, by continuing pollution could mean less years of water for the future. Protecting watersheds in your area could determine whole generations use of the top resource of survival! Protecting watersheds may not be as drastic now, but it certainly will if we do not start now in our communities.
We are doing our part in many ways and joining up with groups to enforce the protection of watersheds. The United States Environmental Protector Agency (EPA) is doing its part nationally in this issue. As well, in central Mississippi, the Madison County Soil and Water office is located in our own Ridgeland, Mississippi. Companies and nonprofit organizations like these are fighting to protect our watersheds for our and the following generations' future use of water.
Watershed protection is an important cause that needs attention! I stress this to obtain the attention this cause deserves in preserving the world's top resource. After water of course, there is no substitute. That is why protection or watersheds are necessary and we are finding ways to protect the watersheds.
