Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To assist the Congress and the administration in deciding the future course of the national waer-quality program, we reviewed the findings of recent studies on the quality of waer in U.S. rivers and streams and the progress that has been made toward the goals of the Clean Water Act. From our in-depth review and synthesis of the literature and the advice of expert consultants, we formulated four evaluation questions: 1. What is the present condition of the nation's water quality? 2. How has the nation's water quality changed over time? 3. What pollution sources degrade water quality? 4. What has been the effect of the Construction Grants Program on water quality? In addition to reviewing and synthesizing relevant inforrmation from the studies that addressed these questions, we evaluated the methodologies they employed to reach their conclusions."--Page 12.

Book Polluted Inheritance

Download or read book Polluted Inheritance written by Mike Joy and published by Bridget Williams Books. This book was released on 2015-11-20 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The parlous state of our freshwater ecosystems is just one signal that we face a more widespread, and unprecedented, environmental crisis. New Zealand’s dairy industry is big business. But what are the hidden – and not so hidden – costs of intensive farming? Evidence presented here by ecologist Mike Joy demonstrates that intensive dairy farming has degraded our freshwater rivers, streams and lakes to an alarming degree. This situation, he argues, has arisen primarily through governmental policy that prioritises short-term economic growth over long-term environmental sustainability. This BWB Text is a call to arms, urging New Zealand to change course or risk the wellbeing of future generations.

Book The Politics of Fresh Water

Download or read book The Politics of Fresh Water written by Catherine M. Ashcraft and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2016-12-08 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Water scarcity is not simply the result of what nature has to offer but always involves power relations and political decisions. This volume discusses the politics of the freshwater crisis, specifically how access to water is determined in different regions and historical periods, how conflict is constructed and managed, and how identity and efforts to control water systems, through development, technologies, and institutions, shape one another. The book analyzes responses to the water crisis as efforts to mitigate water insecurity and as expressions of collective identity that legitimate, resist, or seek to transform existing inequalities. The chapters focus on different processes that contribute to freshwater scarcity, including land use decisions, pollution, privatization, damming, climate change, discrimination, water management institutions and technology. Case studies are included from North and South America, Africa, Asia, Europe and New Zealand.
