Some people think that the government should strictly control the supply of fresh water, as it is a limited resource, while others it should not be regulated. Discuss both sides and give your opinion.

There is an ongoing debate about whether the supply of fresh
water
should be highly regulated or should not be bounded by any
rules
.
While
laws may be perceived as attempts to limit freedom, I believe that corresponding regulations should be as detailed as possible to help avoid potential conflicts where access to
water
can be used as a weapon. On the one hand, most
rules
may cause an impact on already-formed habits, and breaking them may face backlashes. Throughout history, previous generations came up with many traditions related to rivers and lakes.
Therefore
, even very justifiable restrictions may not be faced friendly.
For example
, in the Carpathian mountains locals were quite furious about losing legal ways to cut trees
due to
the growing population and frequent floodings. In my opinion, negative feelings should be taken into account in communications from officials, but they should not stop responding to the changing environment.
On the other hand
, detailed
rules
about freshwater control can prevent upcoming international conflicts.
For example
, China threatened India by redirecting the river which is a
water
supply for hundreds of millions of people. In case of well-defined consequences for
such
actions, the motivation to use
such
a cruel method will be much lower. In my opinion, the following decades have many hazards related to
water
wars and global warming, and well-development laws can prevent or reduce many of them.
To conclude
,
although
strict
water
control may cause the feeling of lost freedom for some people, it is one of the most important priorities in the world with climate changes and more hostile relationships between countries. Defined
rules
bring certainty and reduce miscommunication.
