Recently, there are many unusual environmental phenomena in the world as we know. From land to sky, everything is related to the environment, and humans are one of elements in Ecology System. However, we became the Predator. In terms of the research paper, I would like to report Water Crisis.
Basically, water is the most important elements for all organisms as well as humans. However, the amount of using water in the world is getting decreased by pollution and overusing. According to a report by the United Nations, more than 45% countries in the world are suffering from lack of water. Especially, African countries and mid-east countries are getting worse.

I hope this research paper enlightens countries, or people that use water inefficiently. Include me, many of us are using water without any consideration because we don’t feel any inconvenience with water. I wish I would be in Africa right now in order to feel the water crisis, and I want to see how African people are suffering.

This is a report from CQ Research Online, which is a reputational online research web-site. It approaches the problem of water like how pure the American water is, and what the reasons are. Even though this doesn’t seem like a global report, it is useful to get the point how I approach this problem.

This is another report from CQ Research, but this is worldwide report. Besides, it is more reliable because it’s published in 2003. (First report was published in 1999)
It shows solutions as well as pros and cons so that we can get synthesizes of ideas.

Another useful resource from EBSCOhost, which is from Academic Search Premier, show that the limitation of helping third world countries by International community because of political reasons. This is 24 pages long report, and it approaches water crisis with politics. Therefore, it could be useful because it covers other references that the other resources didn’t cover.

Lastly, this is an article from the New York Times. It catches up the water crisis as a war, which is interesting because experts predict that there will be a war for water supplies such as an oil war. This is totally understandable. In the future, sustainable water will be the great natural resource and pure air too. This is what I expect.

Yes! I love the fact that you are using library databases!
One problem: your paper will be a bit too general. Since you are mostly looking at Africa, can you focus on one region or community that can serve as an example of what you mean?

Hey Dong Kyu, I love your topic! I think it i great. If your focus is on a nation like (Sudan) is becomes much easier to get information. Otherwise, the topic is too large.
Nice, man. It looks like you really know what you;re doing. Plus, I feel like the water issue is a good one since not many people know about it, and it is something that can become a major problem.
Yes I agree with narrowing it down to one specific region in Africa. That way you be will be able to focus on one thing and look into that region or community closer.
