Water conservation includes all the policies, strategies and activities to sustainablymanage the natural resource of fresh water, to protect the hydrosphere, and to meet the current and future human demand. Population, household size, and growth and affluence all affect how much water is used. Factors such as climate change have increased pressures on natural water resources especially in manufacturing and agricultural irrigation.[1] Many US cities have already implemented policies aimed at water conservation, with much success.[2]

The goals of water conservation efforts include:

Ensuring availability of water for future generations where the withdrawal of freshwater from an ecosystem does not exceed its natural replacement rate.Energy conservation as water pumping, delivery and wastewater treatment facilities consume a significant amount of energy. In some regions of the world over 15% of total electricity consumption is devoted to water management.Habitat conservation where minimizing human water use helps to preserve freshwater habitats for local wildlife and migrating waterfowl, but also water quality.

Answer:

Conservation of water

Water conservation is the practice of using water efficiently to reduce unnecessary water usage. Water conservation is important because fresh clean water is a limited resource and mankind, animals, birds and all all life forms need water for survival. Some ways to conserve water and prevent wasting of water are:

1) Fix any leak in your toilet and shower quickly.

2) Check for leaks in water pipes both inside and outside the house.

3) Do not waste water by taking unnecessary long showers.

4) While brushing your teeth or shaving, turn off the tap when not in use.

5) Rinse your vegetables in a bowl instead of washing them in a running water tap.

6) Water your lawn only when it needs it and not as and when you want to.

7) Plant drought-resistant trees and plants. There are many beautiful trees and plants which thrive with less water.

8) Reuse the water for rinsing vegetables for watering your garden.

9) Use modern efficient irrigation systems.

10) Children love to play under a hose or sprinkler on a hot day. But this practice is wasteful of precious water and should be discouraged.

Water is a finite resource. If not managed properly it will result in acute scarcity in the future. Let us conserve water for the preservation of human life and other life forms on Earth.
