Well said Nasrul Isa Isa. I (too) remain steadfast in the view that Cleaner Production (as was introduced by the UN in the 1990s) then promoted by myself/peers from the University of SA that "selective separation (for recovery and re-use purposes)" offered the key to resolving Humanity's failing approach to managing the environment when it comes to water use. Yet unfortunately, the UN failed to pursue/endorse practicalities which favoured Nature and instead chose to sit back and simply report on its continued destruction and insufficient participation of its stakeholders. Needless to say, the Ocean governs the Water Cycle and hence regulates the weather but nothing is being done to foster this fundamental natural process in the fight against Climate Change. Waste Water – We all do it! Waste Water generally contains a plethora of harmful or life threatening substances. Left untreated or partially treated it is also severely detrimental to the environment. Yet the vast majority of Waste Water is barely treated, and some 2000 cubic kilometres annually is disposed direct to Ocean from City outfalls. The number of marine outfalls operating across the globe have multiplied year on year for more than a century, and their disastrous affect upon the Ocean plainly documented since the 1950s. Our Oceans are dying! Instead of living together with Nature’s recirculatory land-based water cycle we drain the land only to pollute its life-sustaining waterways, but to make things worse we deforest habitats and erode ecosystems. The Natural world is dying! To try and reverse such travesty, just three fundamental industrially robust steps – separation, filtration and disinfection - allows for the waste that inhibits return of the natural water cycle to be recovered, and so enable ‘fit for purpose’ water re-use to help realise an eco-friendly, sustainable future for all.
