The water crisis is no laughing matter and something needs to be done about it. Too many countries are suffering from drought, which is causing many families’s health to suffer. Sandra Postel attacks this problem in a brilliant manner in her article. The daunting statistics she provides just invigorates the mind to action. If there is little water available and the population keeps increasing then it is obvious that we are going to have to change our ways. There just isn’t enough water per person. Our world is stricken with too much greed- we all want to have our way whether or not the ramifications affect the people that surround us. The common saying is that greed is human nature and I believe if we want to continue living in a healthy world we need to change that.

              I set my Google alerts to search for articles pertaining to sustainability and so far I have to say that it has been quite informative. When typing in my search preference I have come to learn that it probably shouldn't be such generalized topic. The articles I receive back vary all over the place; they range from economic sustainability all the way to environmental sustainability. I have come across a few pretty interesting articles so far. An article I read the other day talked about how Europeans are becoming picky about their source of fish and how it affected stocks based off of which ones they bought. A lot of species of seafood have been over fished in the past decade which is why the European market is encouraging people to try new exotic fish to reduce the over fishing. I have come to find Google alerts very promising and I plan on continue using it in the future to come.
