What should communities do?
Each community should endeavor to set up a water stewardship plan. The three main aspects for a water stewardship plan are conservation, restoration and education. However, before implementing any of the steps, the area must first be assessed to determine which parts will be most effective. This is to ensure that the plan will not waste money and will actually aid in water stewardship.
The water resources of the world are an invaluable resource that we often take for granted. Yet, in light of the changing conditions of the climate, and the threat that poses to our water systems, intervention must begin to protect our most precious resource. There is significant evidence that human actions are changing the climate. This is not entirely negative, because it signifies that a proactive approach to environmental issues can lessen the impacts of climate change.
