Mind Mapping - Write on the board “Water Pollution”.

write their responses attached to the central term.
Ask the students if they have ever seen examples of water pollution. Have them give
18 details like location, type of water body, type of pollution, did they tell someone about it/make an
effort to clean it up? It is important to understand the ways in which society uses and pollutes water,
or modifies water courses.

5. Challenges ahead
5.1. Water resource management (WRM)
Water resource management is the activity of planning, developing, distributing and
managing the optimum use of water resources.
According to the World Bank, water resources management seeks to harness the benefits
of water by ensuring there is sufficient water of adequate quality for drinking water and sanitation
services, food production, energy generation, inland water transport, and water-based recreational,
as well as sustaining healthy water-dependent ecosystems and protecting the aesthetic and spiritual
values of lakes, rivers, and estuaries.
