World most precious resource? As if.

Being the worlds most precious resource and most valuable (as in money value) resource is not the same thing. just saiyan

Mr. Legogunnar, what you have just said, is the most insanely idiotic thing I have ever heard. At no point, in your rambling incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points and may God have mercy on your soul.

Water is a precious resource to everyone. We only have an extremely low amount of drinkable water, compared to the total amount that we have on the planet. If the world's population didn't keep growing, then it wouldn't be as precious.

My dad is working on a project which includes a straw that filtrates all the good water through.
I send money to an african family in Burkina Faso for food, fresh water and education.
But please continue on how you know their suffering and help them so much yourself

This isn't a matter of voting and opinion. If everyone on the earth votes for the earth won't be polluted it would still be polluted. It's just a lot of people disagreeing with one (me) because they need a scapegoat-ish person. Unfortunately, none of them has done any reseach or has any actual knowledge of what they talk about. They just see someone with a shitload of red thumbs, and there believes that person must be wrong.

No, it's definitely the world's problem. We're running out of water. In about twenty or thirty years scientists think that the American South will be in a perpetual drought, and that the great lakes will be empty just a few years later. Because we care too much about our fucking lawns.
User avatar #26 to #23 - legogunnar (05/01/2012) [-]
Water doesn't leave planet earth. It may go somewhere else, but it won't leave the earth unless it is stolen by huge aliens.
User avatar #29 to #26 - commontroll (05/01/2012) [-]
Plants and animals must absorb water in order to survive. Not all of the water we drink comes back out, because nothing is 100% efficient. Your cells have water in them. Those cells die, split, and suddenly you have two new cells. You have to drink water to fill them back up. Plants do it too.
User avatar #32 to #29 - legogunnar (05/01/2012) [-]
Yes but that water doesnt dissappear. It leaves our mouthes as CO2. Water is H2O. With photosynthesis the plants make water and oxygen from sunlight and CO2.
User avatar #40 to #32 - commontroll (05/01/2012) [-]
CO2 isn't water. CO2 is a gas. There is moisture that leaves our body via our breath, yes. But that's not enough to keep the world hydrated.
User avatar #46 to #40 - legogunnar (05/01/2012) [-]
No. But the plants "Inhales" the CO2 and makes H2O and water.

User avatar #62 to #46 - MudkipTomislav (05/01/2012) [-]
You should do a little research before making such claims. Plants use water and CO2 to produce sugar and oxygen. They use up water, they don't create it.
User avatar #120 to #62 - legogunnar (05/01/2012) [-]
here i just found a link to a facts about water website. Look at number 18 in About water quantities

User avatar #67 to #62 - legogunnar (05/01/2012) [-]
Photosynthesis is when the plants makes use of water + co2 + sunlight ---> glucose + o2

Respiration is when the plant makes use of o2 + glucose ------> water + co2

I did my research. Your move

User avatar #596 to #67 - MudkipTomislav (05/02/2012) [-]
Well I don't really know what to say except that it should be obvious to anyone that they use up more water than they give off, otherwise the plants would be borderline starving and there wouldn't be any starch in grain nor would they be able to build themselves out of cellulose.

tldr: all of the glucose made isn't used for cellular respiration a lot of is transformed into building material and reserves, so the plant uses more water than it eventually gives off
User avatar #50 to #46 - commontroll (05/01/2012) [-]
Tiny amounts. By the way, H20 IS water. You mean O2 and H20.

Anyway, plants use up water as well. Nothing is perfectly efficient, and we are running out of water. And it's because of idiots in denial, hint hint, that we're going to run out of water in America.
User avatar #59 to #50 - legogunnar (05/01/2012) [-]
Okay, i'm not american first of all. secondly consider this
Research shows that if every person in the world lived as an average american, humankind would need 6 planets to sustain us.
thirdly, i'm not oblivious to all the problems in the world. I became a vegetarian, to lower the planets people would use if they were me, which is 1,6 earths.
Fourthly, all the atoms water is made may be scattered in the atmosphere, but they will never leave planet earth, they will come back, if the world remains as it is now, (though it'll probably wont)
And thirdly most plants produces more water, than they use.
#212 to #59 - eiaisqzbsesb (05/01/2012) [-]
Took the test. My results: "Congratulations, you are living an ecologically conscientious lifestyle.
If everyone lived like you do, we would need only 0.81 Earths."

Why?
User avatar #101 to #59 - commontroll (05/01/2012) [-]
You realize a huge amount of Europe lives the same way Americans live, right? And you being a vegetarian, just uses up even more plants, which you are saying hydrate the earth. And if they come back, it'll probably be too late, and about half the population of the earth will be dead. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Pigs eats leaves grass etc. Fields are made by destroying a lot of forests. Vegetarians doesn't eat trees.

But if everyone were vegetarians, all the animal farms would be plant farms, and produce water and co2 instead of the opposite

User avatar #103 to #95 - legogunnar (05/01/2012) [-]
No, but pigs emits co2, right? now the reason there is so many pigs, is because humans breed them. If they "bred" plants instead, they would make oxygen and water for the planets, thereby not polluting it. Also all the shit from the animals is seeping into the groundwater or out in our rivers and lakes, killing all the fishes and making the water undrinkable.
#107 to #103 - sexypotato (05/01/2012) [-]
We breathe and shit too... And Im fairly certain that using a gallon of water to flush down our shit is more wasteful than a pig turd somehow seeping through a cubic fuckton of dirt into water....

User avatar #25 to #19 - legogunnar (05/01/2012) [-]
But that water will never actually leave earth. Also the groundwater provides fresh water almost everywhere. Water is not precious because we will never lose it. It will never dissappear completely. Also the salt water can be distilled, and the "dirty" water filtered. It's not precious such as oil is. We can run out of oil. We can never run out of water.
User avatar #31 to #25 - commontroll (05/01/2012) [-]
Ever heard of evaporation? If the world keeps getting hotter, it will keep evaporating. Have you ever seen a drought? And the problem with filtering is that not everybody can afford or make filters. That's why they're having issues in Africa in the first place.
User avatar #34 to #31 - simonlc (05/01/2012) [-]

User avatar #38 to #34 - commontroll (05/01/2012) [-]
Only if the water vapor can condense into clouds. That's what causes droughts, it's too hot for the water to condense and rain. Plus, most of the water goes into the ocean anyway.
User avatar #33 to #31 - legogunnar (05/01/2012) [-]
Ever heard of clouds? clouds are vaporized water. When it rains, the water will come back to the earth, perhaps not in warmer place, but then in colder.

User avatar #73 to #65 - legogunnar (05/01/2012) [-]
No all the other people don't have a clue. This is really basic biology:

Planets earths atmosphere and magnetic field pulls in all the atoms, including vaporized water

Not the whole world has a water problem, therefore it is not a global problem. And it won't dissappear.

Photosynthesis is when the plants makes use of water + co2 + sunlight ---> glucose + o2

Respiration is when the plant makes use of o2 + glucose ------> water + co2 Plants make oxygen and water, so as long as people don't ruin the forest, humanity would survive.

#104 to #73 - airam (05/01/2012) [-]
Id be really shocked if you didn't know that, but the actual reason for why people call you brat and all is because you deny the fact that the WORLD has a water problem! There is not enough water for everyone. We should all take care of each other instead of pampering some and neglecting the others.

Clouds only are formed if it's cold enough for them to condense. Most of our clouds are made via jets spraying silver oxide. Even still we have a shitload of droughts going on. And if you haven't noticed, a huge amount of Earth's population lives in these warmer places. Including the places that provide our oil. And if it doesn't come back in the warmer places, then we once again have an issue for earth. Earth isn't just the colder regions, dumbass.
User avatar #41 to #37 - legogunnar (05/01/2012) [-]
And when you go just a few kilometers up from the earths surface, it is much colder, cold enough for clouds to form. When water evaporates it gets lighter than air and moves upwards, to where it is cold enough for them to condense.

I never said the hot place didn't have a problem. I just said it didn't include the whole world.
User avatar #48 to #41 - commontroll (05/01/2012) [-]
And hot regions are a major part of the world. Like, major.

I'm saying that even though it's colder up there, if it's not cold enough, they won't gather. You're not really listening to what I'm saying. In order to keep most of America from being in a drought right now, we spray silver oxide in the air to get the water to condense. It isn't forming enough clouds otherwise. That's why when you see jets, they have a trail of clouds behind them. Nature isn't making the clouds as much as we need, because we use up too much.
