Government requirements and their limitations
The government at the state and federal level do have laws and regulations in terms of protecting water sources and wetlands for animals and humans to live on that isn’t meant for urban sprawl to pollute and take over. The problem with government requirements is that many of the lands that are protected by these laws are being shoved aside to land developers wanting to build homes on land that’s home to some of the country’s natural resources like water since some of the bottled water people drink the sources they’re bottled at are on these protected lands around the United States and Canada. The limit is that dwellings and homes can’t be placed in areas that are protected due to the increase in pollution and overcrowding in non-habitual areas that are protected by laws and regulations. Many of the natural water sources have been protected when people push to stop land developers from just coming in and building all over the place. The natural water sources is also a means to provide clean drinking water to people, but also to animals that make their homes in the wooded areas outside of urban cities and towns. The laws need to protect the water sources because if they didn’t we wouldn’t have products like Dasani, Crystal Geiser, Ice Mountain, and other brands that rely on water sources to allow them to bottle and sell it to the general public. That’s why many areas around the country that has fresh water sources are under intense scrutiny to remain protected because that’s the only thing left that is a natural water source that’s untreated with chemicals and other elements and is ok to bottle and sell to people. The government has a responsibility to limit what can and cannot inhabit because it does affect the natural resources when land developers take over and start expanding and taking away what is the last of what resources are available. This is where a concern to reexamine the current laws to limit what use a land developer can do if it may affect natural resources such as water because they drive up pollution with their projects and increased traffic to that area. Lawmakers have an obligation to protect the water sources that are on reserve so that pollution can’t reach them. Much of what was decent land and areas are slowly being sucked up by land developers by them cutting trees down which effects an entire ecosystem or draining bodies of water which was once a water supply to feed humans and animals. Now it’s up to the voters to really take a stand and say enough to the land developers coming in and ruining areas that were complete ecosystems that actually provided clean water for drinking and a never ending food supply for animals and humans both. There are few areas in the United States and abroad that still have clean, untainted water that’s fresh enough to drink where you do not taste the urban sprawl in a single glass or serving. Europe has strict laws in place to protect the Alps where Perrier, Evian, and Pellegrino three imported brands of bottled water that are produced come from due to the fact that urban sprawl is so bad that they had to limit the building and construction to decrease the chances of polluting the mountains with excessive traffic and people living there. |
