Mexico, because of its stature as a leading Latin American nation, is …

Difused Surface Water: Reasonable Use Has Become The Common Enemy, Wendy B. Davis
Difused Surface Water: Reasonable Use Has Become The Common Enemy, Wendy B. Davis
ExpressO
Diffused surface water, caused by precipitation, should be treated as a necessary asset to replenish aquifers used for drinking water, and not as waste to be disposed of by landowners. Groundwater aquifers were created, and can only be replenished, by precipitation that is allowed to seep underground. Ninety-nine percent of the drinking water for people in rural areas of America comes from groundwater aquifers. These aquifers are in danger of being contaminated or depleted, which could result in severe water shortages very soon. Legislators have failed to enact a comprehensive system to regulate the use of aquifers, relying instead on …
