War vs. Polluted Water: Which Is Deadlier?
November 16th, 2011
Water is life and humans need it to survive. It constitutes about 60 percent of the total body weight. Without it, human beings would die. Since it is a vital fluid required by the body, it should be very clean for human consumption. Water can be polluted by broken sewers and impurities in the ground. Some substances such as chlorine are added to the water to kills harmful substances but the chlorine itself can cause cancer or bind with other water pollutants to form toxic compounds.Didn’t catch that? This explains it.
War always results in fatalities most of whom are innocent civilians. They say that war has to occur in order for peace to reign. Soldiers in war choose to put themselves in danger in order to fight for something they strongly believe in.
Polluted water is definitely deadlier than war because wars are choices humans make and can be corrected through reconciliation but water is a must have for all human, plants and animals and if it is polluted, there is no way of knowing it. There are some measures people do to protect their drinking water. These include boiling, filtering and even buying bottled mineral water which is said to have zero impurities.
