(Mis)Infographic: More Groundwater Garbage - Dissing Our Largest Unfrozen Freshwater Resource

Curmudgeon alert!

This infographic was Tweeted to me a few days ago. Who sent it to me is immaterial; the source of the infographic is GOOD.

So what is wrong with the infographic? 

It is hard to to see but the water drop at the top center shows the breakdown of Earth's freshwater: about 70% polar icecaps; 30% lies underground; less than 1% is surface water. No problem, right?

Wrong!

The problem is the text associated with the last two figures:

30% (Most of which is too expensive to tap into and filter)

which of course means that:

Less than 1% of the world's freshwater is available for human consumption.

These passages are wrong.

My basis for these statements? After all, citations are provided for the statements on this infographic But they are still wrong. My basis for saying that? Last month I took The Nature Conservancy to task for its egregious claim as depicted in this graphic that was making the rounds on Twitter.

Circle of Blue also deserves to be called out. They say groundwater isn't 'readily accessible'. 

Organizations like to dismiss groundwater's importance to society to further their own agendas, which may involve fundraising. Shame on them!

When are organizations going to realize that by marginalizing groundwater they are encouraging people to neglect its protection? Since it is 'inaccessible and undrinkable' why bother taking care of it?

Ignorance is no longer an excuse; this is 2014, folks.  

Read my post from last May. Like Rodney Dangerfield, groundwater gets no respect. 

“Facts do not cease to exist just because they are ignored.” - Aldous Huxley

Five Years Ago Today Our SUSIE Students Arrived!

Thought I would celebrate the fifth anniversary of the arrival of our SUSIE students, twenty-three young women (14) and men (9) from Central America (Panama, Honduras, Costa Rica, and Nicaragua) and the Caribbean (Jamaica, Haiti, the Dominican Republic, and Trinidad and Tobago). Most arrived on Sunday, 28 June 2009. We were all excited.

I like to think of them as future western hemisphere and/or world leaders.

SUSIE is an acronym for Study of the U.S. Institute for the Environment, and was funded and sponsored by the Study of the U.S. Branch in the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs. It was a five-week summer program that dealt with water supply, water quality, water and wastewater treatment, land and coastal development issues.

Ana Maria Peralta, one of three Dominicanas, who later pursued an MBA in Spain, assembled this photograph:

 
The instructors are arranged along the left side and top. Starting with me at the top left, below me are Anna Harding (public health); Todd Jarvis (water resources); Christine Kelly (environmental engineering); and Ken Williamson (civil and environmental engineering). To the right of me is Marion McNamara, who did the heavy lifting with respect to the administrative aspects of the program. She and I were co-directors. Next to Marion are Evan Miles, now a PhD student at Cambridge (the head TA) and TAs Jessica Nischik and Kate Swenson. The picture of Mt. Hood is signifcant because on the day before we all went to Washington, DC, we took them up to a few patches of snow where they all experienced snow for the first time.

Here is a larger picture of all of us in Washington, DC, where we spent a week after five weeks in Oregon:

 
 Here is a story about the program and the students; view their project presentations.

Each student was different, but all shared great intelligence and a desire to learn. I told them that they were going to spoil me for my fall 2009 Geology 101 class. They did!

Two years ago at this time I was traveling through Honduras and Nicaragua and saw three of the SUSIE students. I saw Julio Eguigurems (above) on 27 June 2012 in Honduras. He works at the national forestry school in Comayagua. I then traveled to Nicaragua to see Laura Espinoza García and Natalia Raudez. Laura just completed her first year studying for a Master's degree in Belgium on a scholarship and Natalia is married and a mommy. I unfortunately missed Lucia Paiz Medina, who has completed her Master's degree in Brussels.

Julio may be applying for a Master's degree at OSU, and Dara-Marie Raggay of Trinidad and Tobago was accepted at OSU for a Master's in Environmental Science but did not matriculate.

Amazing people!

You don't know how much I miss you and how much you enriched my life! 

Postscript: our State Department overseer loved it and thought we did a fabulous job. She joined us for a big dinner in DC, loved the students, and thought the program was a great way to connect with our hemispheric friends. When we reapplied for another similar program, we were turned down. Go figure...

TGIF! Weekly Water News Summary, 21 - 27 June 2014

I am spending the night in Lakeview, OR, the self-styled 'Tallest Town in Oregon' since its elevation is 4,800 feet (c. 1,500 m) above MSL.

Pretty impressive, eh?

I am en route to Reno and the AWRA IWRM Conference. I am taking the long way simply because I wanted to see this part of Oregon. Very pretty, especially the last part through the Sprague River Valley.
