The example of Madrid and golf in the World Water Day

The World Water Day is celebrated March 23 since 1993, sponsored by the United Nations Program for Environment. The purpose of this day is to call attention to the vital importance of this resource and the need to preserve and sustainably manage the planet's water reserves. Every year this day is dedicated to a particular theme: if last year was "Clean Water for a Healthy World 'in 2011 is" \u200b\u200bWater for cities: responding to the urban challenge. " This topic was chosen in order "to focus the international impact of rapid urban population growth, industrialization and the uncertainty caused by climate change, conflict and natural disasters on urban systems of water supply. "

Water is good most basic of all, essential to life, but limited access to billions of people around the world: 46% of the world population lacks access to running water or drinking. Additionally, this problem will worsen in coming years due to climate change and population growth: an estimated 1,800 million people live in areas with severe shortages Water for the year 2025.

In our country, water allocation has long been a pressing problem that has caused many conflicts, as the battle for the National Hydrological Plan. Although we know that water is a scarce commodity, and that it will be even more in coming years, it seems that many are determined to maintain an outdated mentality and extremely environmentally irresponsible. Esperanza Aguirre is one of them.

president of the Community of Madrid opened yesterday in Alcalá de Henares Golf Course El Encino, which will, in Aguirre's own words, "a reference to all golfers." Mala reference if we consider that is used by Ecologists in Action Supreme Court, which has not yet ruled on its legality. In addition, the environmental organization takes time claiming that the golf course is irrigated with potable water , "which is a plus for a project unsustainable wasteful economic and environmental resources."

But the bet of Hope Aguirre for golf is rotund. In fact, yesterday said that "The public authorities are required to advance the practice of golf" . It is what it is doing with the golf course project in Tres Cantos for the Ryder Cup, in a protected area of \u200b\u200bthe Natura 2000 network. The 32 fields that already exist in Madrid seem clearly inadequate for her.

The World Water Day is impossible not to wonder how Esperanza Aguirre hopes to continue watering green both in regions such as Madrid, more and more densely populated and probably will suffer serious problems of supply in the coming years. Point us we really need the New Water Culture , putting the savings and sustainable management of this vital resource above economic interests of any kind.
