...Drink water when you first get up. Imagine walking into a dark room and looking for something. Chances are you will stumble and maybe even fall unless you turn on the light. Or consider starting your car in sub-zero temperatures and putting it into gear without waiting for the engine to warm up. Either situation can lead to problems or even disasters. r When You Need It Most By Rose Alexander The same is true of the human body. Without water to “wake up and turn on” the body each day, you may be running on empty, especially if you skip breakfast altogether. Have a glass of cool water right after you wake up in the morning to tell your body it’s time to get started. Like a gently flowing stream that pushes along debris and rocks, your circulatory system needs fluid to get rid of stubborn free radicals and residue from burned calories that were used during the night’s metabolism. Refresh your system with a drink of water. 2. Drink water before each meal. Drinking water before a meal helps you feel fuller, so you may be less likely to attack your meal like a starving person. Water helps prepare the stomach for the food that will follow, waking up taste buds on the tongue and moisturizing the stomach lining so brittle or acidic foods won’t be uncomfortable. Having a glass of water clears your mouth of dryness or leftover tastes from earlier dining, drinking, or smoking in anticipation of the food that is coming. 3. Drink water with a snack. Between meals...

...Water Crisis Impact in California Monica Mois Essentials of College Writing/COMM/215 October 6, 2014 Carolyn Geiser Water Crisis Impact in California Due to the lack of rain in the past few years, and particularly in the last few months, California faces severe drought. This is the worst drought in more than one hundred years. The impact of California drought affects community, agriculture, organic ranchers, and dairy farmers. Because of these facts, the United States must rethink the way it uses water. Californians alone are asked to reduce their water usage by twenty percent to prevent water waste. Communities, Agriculture, Organic Ranchers and Dairy Farmers Many communities in California struggle with shortage of drinking water. One example is “the small community of Cameron Creek Colony in Tulare County is struggling due to severe drought. About ten percent of its residents have no access to water because their wells have run dry. Others have only intermittent access” (USDA, 2014). In other communities, residents are urged to avoid wasting water. The Waterboards.ca.gov (2014) website has a list of emergency water conservation regulations stating that every citizen is prohibited to use potable water to wash sidewalks and driveway, to use hoses with no shut off nozzles to wash their cars, water the lawn more than two times a week, and reduce the amount of watering time for each station using an automatic sprinkler system. Residents could face...

...Bottled Water: A Closer Look Lisa Nardone English Composition 112 Professor Tara Ciccarone August 25, 2011 People purchase bottled water as a healthier alternative than tap water. Convenience is another reason for purchasing bottled water. This convenience may come with repercussions. There are debatable issues that arise regarding bottled water such as possible health risks and the environmental impact on many levels. Many companies are going green, yet it may not be enough. Many purchase for better tasting water, although recent taste tests have concluded it may be a case of mind over matter. A solution could possibly be switching to filtered water. The convenient and presumed tasty bottled water people crave may come at the cost of negative effects on consumer’s physical health and the environment. Bottled water may provide a convenient and healthy alternative in many cases. In the case that the local tap water systems may be contaminated. If tap water is unavailable due to travel or system difficulties bottled water could be a great convenient back up. Some may argue having bottled water on hand helps people of all ages stay hydrated. The one event that bottle water is a savoir is natural disaster. During natural disasters such as hurricanes, tornados or tsunami’s local systems are usually shut down. People could also lose the availability to running water since homes may have been destroyed. A great example according to “Nursing Standard” is...

I have invited you to lunch and learn about, what you will select for a yearlong beverage contract from these three choices water, Gatorade, and Powerade. The role of water in our body are giving cell life, where water is a carrier, distributing essential nutrients to cells as minerals, vitamins, and glucose. It also has chemical and metabolic reactions as it removes waste products including toxins that the organ cells reject and removes through urine and feces. Water is a transport of nutrients in the biochemical break down of what we eat. H2O regulates body temperature, it has a large heat capacity which helps limit changes in body temperature in a warm or cold environment. The elimination of water is an effective lubricant around joints and acts as a shock absorber for eyes, brain, and spinal cord. The goal of drinking fluids during exercise is to prevent dehydration and maintain performance. Fluids preferably with carbohydrates and electrolytes, should be consumed in small amounts every 15 to 20 minutes during exercise. Water and electrolytes serve very important roles in the functioning of the body and sweating can lead to excessive losses of both critical nutrients if not properly replaced. Dehydration and electrolyte imbalances can adversely impact health and exercise performance. The magnitude of fluid...

As the population increases and the quality of fresh water declines, it has become an engineering challenge to supply sufficient potable water to the meet demands. Of the many unit processes and operations used in water treatment, coagulation and flocculation required a unique combination of chemical and physical phenomena for producing water acceptable for human consumption. Aggregation of fine particulate matter into larger particulates by the use of coagulation and flocculation facilities permits cost-effective removal in subsequent solid separation processes. Particulates inorganic origin such as clay, silt, and mineral oxides generally enter surface water by natural erosion processes and can decrease the clarity of the water to an unacceptable level. Organic particulates, such as colloidal humic and fulvic acids are a product of decay and leaching of organic debris and litter which have fallen in the water source. These particulates impart a color to the water which in some extreme cases can...

...World. Bottled water has been one of the success stories of the past 20 years. Always popularin some European countries such as France and Italy, fears about contamination of water supplies coupled with rising affluence has resulted in exponential growth in the market in countries where previously people were perfectly happy to drink tap water. The growth in the world population, and consequently increasing pressure on freshwater supplies, means that tap water in many countries is either contaminated or (at best) tastes unpleasant owing to residues from the purification system. The problem for many of the firms in the industry has been the cost of purifying and bottling the water; traditional sources of mineral water, such as the Perrier springs, are inadequate to cope with the potential world supply. Nestles answer to the problem is to source the water in China, where bottling costs are low, and rather than use expensive spring water, to purify ordinary tap water. This renders the water safe to drink, but at a fraction of the overall cost of using spring or mineral water. Nestle initially entered the Asian market by buying out local brands. The company now owns over 50 local brands in Asia, and is lobbying governments in Pakistan, Ghana and the Philippines to allow foreign ownership of local companies: In some Asian countries, notably Thailand, the market has developed to the point where only the very poorest people would drink tap water; Nestle hopes to achieve...

... on the other hand, there is a tremendous gap between the rich and the poor. And India has a great problem. It is water problem. “Now, about 700 million people in the world live on the situation of water shortage. Since people can get only insanitary water, 4900 children (about 1,800,000 people per year) pass away every day according to The U.N. water-resources report, a Human Development Report in 2006.” (Network Earth Village, Environment and Pease NGO, 2012)India is also one of the countries with water shortage And India have some water problems: as stated above, water shortage, water pollution and lagging behind in sanitation. First, in India, water shortage is big problem. People are forced some difficulty by water shortage. First, during the dry season, many corner of India lack water. India has three seasons, which are monsoon, dry season and, heat season. Season of monsoon from June through September, it rains heavily. However, during the season from November through March, many corners of India get dry and lack water. Besides, the rainfall for the past ten years decreased about twenty percent, and also the dry season became long because of climate change by the global warming. In addition, people are forced to walk long distances to find water (Harris, 2013). Because the tap water of India does not fit drink.

...In 2010, bottled water consumption within the U.S. was around 28 gallons per person. As a beverage category, bottled water represented $10.6 billion in annual sales. This category has grown at an impressive rate. In fact the value of the U.S. bottled-water market doubled in less than a decade. The success of this product represents a success for marketing. In this discussion thread we will examine some of the reasons for its success. Issues to Discuss: 1. Describe the target market for this bottled water. How does bottled water create value for target market consumers? Target market refers to a group or customer segment that a firm is interested in selling its product or services. This is a two way relationship as the potential must demonstrate an interest in the product and must also posses the ability to purchase the product or service. During my research I found an article about Nestlé Waters North America. Nestlé Waters has seen a fall because of concerns about cost, energy, water use and plastic waste associated with bottled water (Food & Water Watch). Nestlé Waters changed their target market for bottled water and came up with the Pure Life brand that differs from their previous Nestlés brands. Nestlé started targeting populations where tap water is not safe to drink. Brandweek magazine in 2008 stated that Nestlé Pure Life’s target audience was Hispanic immigrants in the U.S. as well as emerging markets in the developing nations, capitalizing on fears about the safety...

...2/4/13 The release of water from Canton Lake to replenish Oklahoma City’s drinking water has become a huge controversy in northwest Oklahoma. Oklahoma City officials claim that the city has waited as long as possible before pulling water from the lake; however, residents of Canton, Oklahoma don’t buy into this excuse. Is it really necessary to take 30,000 acre-feet of water from a lake that is already at a record low without much chance of recuperation? Besides the argument of whether or not Oklahoma City’s decision is warranted, the economy of the city of Canton as well as the lake’s land and wildlife habitat could experience detrimental losses. Oklahoma’s collective lakes have experienced an intense drought in the past two years. It is due to this drought that this issue has even come to light. Some claim Canton Lake was created as a reserve for Oklahoma City’s drinking water while others claim that it was created for flood control. As The Enid News and Eagle clarifies, “Kathy Carlson, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers lake manager, told the group the lake was built for flood control, water supply and irrigation. Later, secondary purposes were included that added wildlife habitat and recreation” (Barron). Regardless of why the lake was created, local residents believe the water release is unnecessary. Canton business owners, residents, and even surrounding towns argue that Oklahoma City residents and businesses have been negligent concerning water conservation during this...
