Water is the most essential element for human life, and life has been on this planet for over 200,000 years because of the presence of water.
Early civilizations flourished because they relied on water for agriculture, trade and living.
Big rivers were the source of living for them and when population increased and settlements moved away from river and flood banks, canals were dugout.
People found new ways to store water for use in dry seasons and water management systems were created. Dams, ponds, rain water harvesting, wells and storage tanks were built.
In modern times water storage and supply was no longer the responsibility of people but governments.
Cities were built with pipes connecting water from storage tanks to their homes.
People are no longer interested to find their source of water but depend on government to provide them treated water from river or lake.
