Answer 2

Answer:

It may be possible that we are living in an area where there is sufficient rainfall and yet there is shortage of water. This can happen if there is mismanagement of water resources leading to the wastage of water.

(1) Mismanagement of Water by Water Supply Department: When water is supplied by the Water Supply Department through pipes, not all the water may reach the destination.

Many times the big water supply pipes leaking and a lot of water gushing out of these pipes. The leaking pipes lead to the wastage of precious water. It is the responsibility of the Water Supply Department of the town or city to stop this mismanagement of water by fixing the leaking water pipes quickly.

Sometimes the dirty sewer water also gets mixed with the drinking water supply.

(2) Mismanagement of Water at the Individual Level: All of us waste a lot of water while brushing teeth, shaving, bathing, washing clothes, washing utensils, watering the plants and during many other activities.

Leaking taps in our houses are another source of huge water wastage.

(3) Mismanagement of Rainwater: Most of the rainwater which falls around us during rainy season just flows away into dirty water drains and becomes useless. The concerned Government Department as well as the public are responsible for the mismanagement and wastage of this rainwater. This is because rainwater can be used to recharge groundwater for future use.
