March 22 is World Water Day, With this year’s theme being "Water and Jobs". Water is the source of life and the foundation for achieving sustainable development goals. According to the 2016 World Water Development Report, freshwater resources on Earth are very limited, with only 2.5% of freshwater available for human, animal, and plant use. Globally, 884 million people still use unimproved drinking water sources, 2.6 billion lack improved sanitation facilities, and around 3 to 4 billion people do not have access to safe and reliable drinking water at home. Approximately 3.5 million people die each year due to water scarcity and poor sanitation, with over 80% of wastewater remaining untreated. Ensuring safe and hygienic drinking water in workplaces is a priority to cherish precious water resources. 78% of jobs worldwide are dependent on water, and neglecting water resource issues will have serious negative impacts on the economy, livelihoods, and quality of life for people. #WorldWaterDay #savewatersavelife #helpchildgetcleanwater #helptheworldpeaceandlove

35 years focus on water treatment materials (polyacrylamide, polyaluminum chloride) R & D and production, with 10 production lines, with a daily output of 600 tons
Population growth and industrial development have led to an increase in sewage, which, if left untreated, will pollute the environment and thus threaten the survival of mankind. So sewage treatment is very necessary. Sewage treatment can prevent pollution, protect water resources, maintain ecological balance and human health. #wastewatertreatment #environmentalprotection #flocculants #coagulants #waterresources #polyaluminumchloride #polyacrylamide

The most beautiful scientific question in the world about water after several years is this sentence: What's causing global water stress? Undoubtedly, no scientist in the world is able to find a correct answer about it! The correct answer is that atmospheric lenses are caused by the excessive concentration of third type aerosols originating from dried up powder lagoons. It is interesting that these elements have an aquatic or wetland origin because they are formed and built only in water. It is strange to say that the reasons for this water stress have water roots. Yes, at the same time that we consider water as one of the basic factors of life, we should also consider it as one of the most dangerous factors that destroy the life of living creatures on earth. Of course, atmospheric scientists do not have the necessary scientific knowledge in these cases, because the scientists of physics does not have the ability to measure the performance of this special type of atmospheric phenomena. The sharp increase in the Arctic temperature, the rapid evaporation of the world's surface waters, the drying and burning of trees, etc. are the results of the performance of these invisible lenses. Not a word was said in the COP28 about this global disaster! When scientists talk about economy and income instead of scientific issues, it means that people should adapt themselves to these global disasters! #NewScientificTheoryOfTheEarthNaturalSuffocationCycle #BehavioralPhysicsofNaturalColloidalParticles #meteorology #atmosphere #atmospheric #earthscience #earthobservation #physics #geophysics #science #sciencecommunication #scientist #environment #environmentalscience #climatescience #dataanalytics #scienceeducation #scienceexploration #politics #physics #aerosol #atmospher #airpollution #CALIPSO #CALIOP #Pasadena #ATRAIN #EarthCare #InternationalDayofCombatingSandandDustStorms #opendata #wildfires #SDSDay #EarlyWarningsforAll #delaythegreen #globalwarming #showusthedata #geopoliticalrisk #ipccreport #politik #Copernicus #EarlyWarningsForAll #esg #podcast #climatechangeadaptation #ClimateReport #climatedenial #oceanwarming #climateaction #circulareconomy #WHO #IPCC #UNClimateChange #NOAA #Cop10 #AirPollution #Air #AirReport #NASA #environmental #globalwarming #climatecrisis #COP28 #IAEA #EPA #EPA #ipccreport #globalwarming #climatecrisis #COP26 #temperature #delaythegreen #showusthedata #ActOnClimate #wildfires #data #science #oceans #globalwarming #energy #fossilfuels #coal #diesel #fuel #subsidies #carbondioxide #fossilfuelsubsidies #news #technology #power #leadership #greentech #production #PlanetaryStewardship #Sustainability #ClimateAction #EarthShot #ExponentialChange
What’s causing global water stress?💧🌎 Across the world, demand for water is exceeding what’s available. Globally, demand has more than doubled since 1960. Increased water demand is often the result of growing populations and industries like: 🌱Irrigated agriculture, 🐄Livestock 🔋Energy production 🏭Manufacturing Meanwhile, lack of investment in water infrastructure, unsustainable water use policies or increased variability due to climate change can all affect the available water supply. Water stress, the ratio of water demand to renewable supply, measures the competition over local water resources. The smaller the gap between supply and demand, the more vulnerable a place is to water shortages. A country facing “extreme water stress” means it is using at least 80% of its available supply, “high water stress” means it is withdrawing 40% of its supply. Without intervention — such as investment in water infrastructure and better water governance — water stress will continue to get worse, particularly in places with rapidly growing populations and economies.

Water is a major part of our #MasterPlanned #Regenerative #DigitalInfrastructure. Our plan creates more habitat, more clean water, more ways and means for others to learn from and follow...
Today is Imagine a Day Without Water Day—a critical moment to stop and reflect on what we’d lose without an adequate water supply. No safe drinking water, no sanitation, no ability to grow food. Hospitals would struggle, and communities would come to a standstill. Yet, we face real roadblocks in building the water infrastructure we need—regulatory barriers, funding shortfalls, and political gridlock. Water isn’t political; it’s essential. Let’s push past these obstacles and invest in a balanced portfolio of resilient, sustainable water supply infrastructure for today and the future. #ValueWater #ImagineADayWithoutWater #InfrastructureNow #WaterSolutions #WaterResilience

Water is one of our most basic needs and Billions of People still do not have access to Clean Water. In 2024 why not start Saving Water?? 💡💡💡 Save water, save our planet 🌎 🌍🌏 Our water comes from rivers, lakes and sources like the Ladybower Reservoir in Derbyshire. Climate breakdown is one of the biggest drivers of water shortages and is expected to heap even more pressure on our depleting supplies. People in England are facing shortages by 2050 unless we save water fast – according to the UK Environment Agency. Read on for ways to take action and save our water supplies. #SaveWater #WaterSolutions #CleanWater #WaterForAll #SaveOurPlanet #SaveOurselves

Globally, many water challenges are linked to our fragmented approach to water management, which leads to uncontrolled consumption and pollution of water, and decision making based on short-term and localised benefits that do not ensure long-term water security. https://lnkd.in/dz5MWNgP
Why does the financial sector need to think about water risks?

Because of ongoing failures at Atlanta’s R.M. Clayton wastewater treatment plant, we are now seeing clear warning signs of an impending ecological disaster on the Chattahoochee River downstream of the plant. Nutrient pollution from the plant is contributing to very low oxygen levels in the river, which fish rely on to breathe. On July 5, dissolved oxygen levels near Fairburn, Georgia fell below 4.0 mg/L, violating standards set by the Clean Water Act. This depletion of oxygen causes stress to fish and other aquatic life. If levels continue to fall amid hot summer temperatures, it could result in a major fish kill. We’re continuing to monitor oxygen levels in the river downstream of Atlanta as we call on the city to fix the issues at the R.M. Clayton plant and stop the pollution from entering the river. NOTE: This issue does NOT impact water quality upstream of the plant in the Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area. CRK continues to monitor bacteria levels at the R.M. Clayton plant’s outfall into the Chattahoochee River. Although we are seeing less frequent spikes in bacteria levels, we advise recreators to exercise caution on the river for 60 miles from the plant’s outfall to Franklin, Georgia. Exposure to E. coli bacteria can cause serious illness, especially in young children, the elderly and the immunocompromised.
