In the documentary, For Love of Water (FLOW) director Irena Salinas brings to the attention of the public, environmentalists, and government officials the problem of Earth’s diminishing and contaminated water supply. She states that without water the earth would not be how it is and urges that a solution to pollution or the fate of mankind will be in the hands of the contaminated water. This connects to collective self preservation in a way that if water isn’t care for every where then mankind will not be able to survive. Clean water is essential for human survival. Salinas states that the main consumption of water is used for agriculture. Agriculture’s most commonly used pesticide is atrazine, a weed killer, which is the number one contaminate found in drinking, ground, and surface water. Atrazine is manufactured by Swiss company Syngenta, largest chemical company in the world, and it is known to affect hormones by demasculinizing, feminizing, and giving men a low sperm count. In addition to atrazine there are many other thing polluting the water including human made chemicals. Everyone is affected by water pollution. Salinas points out three major water companies Thames Water, Vivendi, and Suez who control majority of the Earth’s water production and distribution. These companies fool people to believe that bottled water is better than tap water but in reality bottled water is not any safer or better than tap water. Salinas states that the company Suez takes water from the Ghangi River and sales it for ten times the price they get it for. Some countries are being pushed towards privatizing their water but this would cause more problems. Interrupting water flow is dangerous and Salinas discusses how trapped water releases twenty times higher methane gas than a power plant does. Countries being pushed towards privatization are being forced to self preserve themselves and manage their water. Pollution is inevitable in these cases. In addition, polluted water use can not be avoided because water is necessary for life. Salinas gives examples are various areas in certain countries where they only have access to lake water because they can not afford to pay for tap water. Water is a $400 billion dollar industry and although it may seem affordable people in other countries do not have the expenses.

PROJECT 3 OUTLINE (ASSIST):
Problem: “California’s Real Water Crisis–Adapting to Environmental Changes”
By: Glen MacDonald
Our Definition of Collective Self-Preservation:
It is the act of protecting yourself from the outside world, and putting yourself first than other problems.

Rhetorical Precis
● In the article, California’s Real Water Crisis–Adapting to Environmental Changes, Glen MacDonald asserts THAT there are three factors that result in the low water supply, which are rising temperatures, groundwater depletion, and the shortage of the Colorado River.
● He supports this assertion by stating reasons why the drought is bad, giving examples of what will happen in future years, and giving data and statistics of the water drought and political declarations. [Rhetorical strategies, identify 2]
● His purpose is to make readers more aware that past strategies to help the water crisis did not work IN ORDER TO prevent future problems by creating new strategies from occurring in California.
● He establishes a serious and informative tone with the audience of the people living in California and Colorado, and the government of California. [age? education level? political leaning? occupation?]

I. “California’s Real Water Crisis–Adapting to Environmental Changes” – By: Glen MacDonald
A. First Main Point: There are three major factors contribute to the water crisis
1. Supporting Point: Temperature
2. Supporting Point: Groundwater Depletion
3. Supporting Point: Shrinking of Colorado River
B. Second Main Point: Temperature
1. Supporting Point: Climate Models- “Climate models do not provide a consensus on the changes in precipitation that might occur in California over the 21st century… However, the models do agree that temperatures will continue to rise. Water demands to meet evaporative losses will therefore increase significantly.” (Paragraph 6)
C. Third Main Point: Groundwater Depletion
1. Supporting Point: “Over the past 150 years, agricultural and domestic extraction has caused water table depths to fall by 100 or so feet in some instances, and the deep aquifer water level to decline by even greater depths in parts of the San Joaquin Valley.” “the current drought has led to increased demands on groundwater in regions such as the San Joaquin Valley, where more than 2,400 well permits were issued in 2013 as the drought hit home.” (Paragraph 7)
D. Fourth Main Point: Shrinking of Colorado River
1. Supporting Point: “Recent research by the Bureau of Reclamation estimates that future climate warming alone will lead to a 10-percent increase in evaporation in Lake Mead as the 21st century progresses.” (MacDonald, par. 13) “The Bureau of Reclamation recently projected that by January 2017 the surface elevation of Lake Mead will have fallen to below 1,075 feet above sea level. This will invoke a federal water shortage declaration and a reduction in water appropriations to Nevada by 4.3 percent and Arizona by 11.4 percent.” (MacDonald, par. 12)
E. Fifth Main Point: Become aware of the problem; offer suggestions
1. Supporting Point: Changing our laws and changing to water-sipping plants
2. Supporting Point: Stormwater capture
3. Supporting Point: Recycled and desalinated water techniques

II. “Drought Is Part of a Much Bigger Water Crisis” – By: Abrahm Lustgarten, Lauren Kirchner, and Amanda Zamora
A. First Main Point: Decline in the size of the Colorado River are to blame for the decrease in water quality
1. Supporting Point: California uses almost one third of the Colorado River
B. Second Main Point: Ways the government are trying to conserve as much water as they can
1. Supporting Point: Cutting farmers water rights back and if they do not they will face a fine, money is being sent from the federal government in “drought aid,” the practice of decentralization
2. Supporting Point: People need to realize the drought is a major concern
C. Third Main Point: The effects the drought has on California and Colorado
1. Supporting Point: Rapid decline of water
2. Supporting Point: Wildfires, make fire fighters job harder, spread of West Nile Virus
3. Supporting Point: The drought brings out worst and good in people
a) Relates back to Thomas Hobbes idea of self-preservation where people feel more entitled to Colorado’s water supply than others.

V. SCHOLARLY ARTICLE ASSIST “Global warming: science, money and self-preservation” – Micha Tomkiewicz
A. First Main Point: The wrong decisions made by humans greatly contributed to the chemical composition of the atmosphere. In turn, negatively impacting the global climate and bringing a decline of natural resources: here specifically being oil. The compensation, or rather solution, was the creation of the International Photochemical and Storage of Solar Energy conference.
1) Supporting point: IPS was created as a reaction to the 1973 Arab-Israeli war. This was done in efforts to make up for the crisis in oil supply; a result of the war. The IPS conference is an act of Self-preservation; the job of the IPS is to regulate the use of energy; address the supply issue.
2) Supporting point: There is a direct relation between energy usage and climate change.
B. Second Main Point: As stated before, the problem is not really a shortage, but more so societal decisions and abuse of energy sources.
1) Supporting point: The excessive use will negatively affect the climate by altering the chemistry and temperature of the atmosphere; through anthropogenic chemical modification.
2) Supporting point: Data extracted from the CIA’s database shows that the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per person has increased linearly (greatly) over the past 30 years. GDP being the energy use.
3) According to research done by the IPCC, the CO2 levels in the atmosphere has increased by 17% since 1958. Through computer modeling and graphing, the IPCC predicts a temperature increase of approximately 2.4 degrees Celsius if the CO2 levels in the atmosphere are doubled.
