describing how water is an available resource when it is groundwater, soil moisture (green water), surface water in dams, rivers and lakes (blue water) and treated or recycled (grey water), and a potential resource when it exists as salt water, ice …

Elaboration ACHASSK185

investigating the causes of water scarcity, for example, an absolute shortage of water (physical), inadequate development of water resources (economic or political), or the ways water is used

Elaboration (2) ACHASSK183

investigating the environmental, economic and social uses of water and the effects of water as it connects people and places (for example, the effects of water diversion in the Snowy Mountains)

Elaboration ACHGK040

investigating the causes of water scarcity (for example, an absolute shortage of water (physical), inadequate development of water resources (economic), or the ways water is used)

Elaboration (2) ACHGK040

examining why water is a difficult resource to manage and sustain (for example, because of its shared and competing uses and variability of supply over time and space)

Elaboration ACHASSK182

classifying resources into renewable, non-renewable and finite/infinite resources, and investigating examples of each type and how they affect environmental sustainability

Elaboration (2) ACHGK054

examining how urbanisation can positively or negatively affect environmental quality (for example, carbon emissions and water consumption)

creating an annotated diagram to show: how water flows through the environment and connects places; or the influence of environmental quality on the liveability of places

Elaboration ACDSEH004

describing the methods used by the Romans to manage resources (for example, the water supply through aqueducts and plumbing systems)

Elaboration (3) ACSHE035

identifying the ways humans manage and protect resources, such as reducing waste and caring for water supplies

Elaboration (1) ACHGS054
