I Have Something to Say

[c=#359E00]River[/c]

[c=#359E00]Nowadays.. sometimes we heard about river damaged by pollution. Sad isn't it? For me it is sad, because river is important for human, we seems to forget about that, well.. the existence of river is one of the key point in human civilization. Without river i can't imagine how we can build civilization.[/c]

[c=#359E00]Fact is the oldest human civilization build nearby river, let's say Tigris and Eufrat, Huang Ho, Nile, and Indus. Mesopotamia, Xia dynasty, Ancient Egypt, Mohenjo Daro, yes all of them build nearby river, so far i haven't heard oldest civilization build in the middle of mountain, desert, beach of steppes.[/c]

[c=#359E00]The thing is, adequate fresh water supply provide stable foundation for human to develop, like.. let's say to start farming. From farming human start to build permanent settlement, after having permanent settlement human can start improving their life with accumulating experience and knowledge to start develop culture.[/c]

[c=#359E00]So we should never forget the important of river for human to start civilization.[/c]

In fact most large rivers in 3rd world countries are just waste dumps, carrying waste into the oceans.
@helenS [c=#359E00]can you avoid using word 3rd world countries? Please i ask you nicely[/c]
