IMPACT OF WATER POLLUTION: THE ECONOMY REPORT SCI256

 Economic Report –  This is the report that assess the best way to use and expend the scarcity of the worlds resources. Two alternatives will be compared and assessed which among the two is the best to employ (“Economic analysis,” 2012). This is through the weighing of the expense and the result that will be achieved. Why the need for an Economic Report Environmental Economics

OUTDOOR WATER POLLUTION Damages the bodies of water of the planet  Oceans  Rivers  Lakes  Indoor water is contaminated through a variety of reasons.  Industrial waste, agriculture-related chemicals, mining pollutants, oils. INDOOR WATER POLLUTION

 Damage to private and commercial fishing due to animal death  Future damage to local species due to disruption of reproductive patterns Expenses of a water pollution  Restoring the water  Cost to the private and public individual  Finding the root of the pollution and blocking it.  Treating and restoring the quality of the water  Short-Term Impacts  Long-Term Concerns Direct Indirect Damages Clean-up

 Actual vs. Estimate  Public View Advantages of Restoration  Estimate Advantage or Not Possible  Actual Advantage or Not Possible  View on the expenses with regards to advantagaes Advantages Actual Estimate Public view

Water pollution happens because of a variety of reasons Roots and Danger of Water Pollution Indirect—Roots of the Pollution. Pollution was brought about by a number of roots.  E.g. : Industry, domestic and agriculture waste  Contaminate outdoor bodies of water such as lakes and rivers. Direct– Root of the Pollution. Pollution was brought about by a single root.  E.g. Oil Spill  Dangerous for marine species  Death toll of marine life such as fishes, coral reefs, sea species etc.

 Applying the Statures  Lobbyists  Public Views  Expenses  Implementation The Problem and Delimitations

 Perceptible—can be seen and sense  How do you view marine life?  Imperceptible – cannot be seen but is essential  What is the essence of a clean body of water?  Peripheral– indirect expenses  Who will finance the restoration? Finding an Economic & Efficient Regulation Water Pollution

 Lifestyle means the way human live their life in view of their nationalities, cultures and traditions. Too much industrialization results to water pollution, degradation of natural resources, marine life and destruction of the environment.  Addressing and solving water pollution should be prioritized so that the human life cannot be affected. The Impact on Lifestyle of Water Pollution

 Economic Report  The report is important, however, delimitations and problems should be considered.  Dissimilarity between an indoor and outdoor water pollution  Advantage and Disadvantage have real and estimated expenses that hinges on public view  Finding the best economic regulation  Water pollution can impact on lifestyle  Knowledge, statures and pledge are solution to lessen water pollution Economic Report on Water Pollution Summary
