southwestern... northeastern
Explanation:
The United States is one of the countries that has one of the most abundant mines of uranium in the world. The majority of the uranium is mined in the southwestern sates, such as Texas, Arizona, Colorado, and Utah. Despite having the majority of the uranium mined in this part of the country, the power plants that use it for production of nuclear energy are not located in close proximity. In fact, most of the power plants are located east of the Mississippi River, with the highest density of power plants being in the northeastern states. In the western part of the country there is only four power plants.
<span>Fresh water is a natural resource while is steadily declining, most prominently in areas such as Asia and North America. There is roughly 326 million trillion gallons of water on this earth however only 3% is drinkable, fresh water. The most significant use of water is to produce hydropower through harnessing its energy, however fresh water is also extracted for consumption, farming and many other daily chores. According to experts, when the annual water supply drops below 1000 m3 per person, this is when the population of that area faces water scarcity. It is predicted that by 2025, most countries within Africa will face this extreme water scarcity as a result of an increasing population and therefore increased water demands. Humans can limit their consumption by conserving fresh water for uses outside of consumption. Water is renewable through rain however we are depleting it at rate in which is cannot be sustained.</span>
