There is no living thing who can survive without water. Also, earth is the only planet which have so much water available abundantly. Water is found at the surface as well as up to a little depth inside the surface. Due to this reason the civilizations grew at the river banks mainly. But due to the ongoing industrial processes, the quality of ground water have deteriorated. Also since surface water gets easily polluted, the significance of ground water as an alternative came into existence. Ground water use dates back to very early times.There are many uses of ground water and it has got many advantages too. It is more or less omnipresent and can be exploited through dug wells and bored well easily. Its occurrence is free of evaporation and thus water inside the ground stays safe like a resource. The water can be withdrawn from the ground for any purposes. Deep water is free of pathogens and also since it is free from atmospheric influences, the temperature remains fit to be used both in summer and winter. In summer the water stays cool and in winter, the water is warm.
However it is not as straight as it seems. Although there is available water under the ground, the present rate of consumption of water will finish the ground water reserve available. Though groundwater is a renewable material, yet it will not be possible to get as much water as we need. First of all the thing to be kept in mind is that pollution is already contaminating the ground water available inside. And secondly, it is being treated as if groundwater is completely inexhaustible resource. One more thing is to be kept in mind that due to global warming, the precipitation is becoming erratic and the recharge of groundwater is also not timely.

groundwater - lifeline of the nation
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Ground water is one of the most important resource for mankind and it is one of the purest form of water which can be available very easily at most of the places as we go to the village part everyone in their homes will have a bore well or a well to meet the requirements of the drinking water etc
At times of drought when water resources are empty ground water will save us but at times of very high drought ground water also becomes empty but at least some water will be available which we can manage till the next rainy season
According to The USGS Water Science School Groundwater is one of the Nation's most important natural resources and 30% of water among the fresh water constitutes of ground water and only 3% is lakes and rivers and the remaining are in the form of glaciers and we should try to conserve our ground water resources and ground water is one of the most important form of water for those people who live in villages as thy do not have proper supply of water from govt so they need to depend on ground water for all their needs
Ground water is one of the most important form of water resources and we should not pollute them , ground water gets polluted by human activities and we should stop them as when we are in need of water ground water is the one who will save us and also many of the plants , trees need ground water for their survival therefore we should protect and conserve our ground water
