Save Water Save Life
'Save Water Save Life' is a quite relevant topic, especially in the modern age when the global fresh water resources are getting depleted day by day mainly due to pollution. The main reason of pollution is man's careless and inhumane activities. It is very important to stop water pollution because water is the basic necessity of our lives. In absence of water, we shall not survive.
Water is necessary for life. Water is needed for domestic, agricultural and industrial purposes. Three-fourth of Earth's surface is covered by water bodies. 97 per cent of this water is present in oceans as salt water and is unfit for human consumption. Fresh water accounts for only about 2.7 per cent. Nearly 70 per cent of this occurs as ice sheets and glaciers n Antarctica and other inaccessible places. Only one per cent of fresh water is available and fit for human use. So it is very important to conserve this precious resource. And yet we are contaminating the existing water resources with sewage, toxic chemicals and other wastes. Increasing population and rapid urbanisation has led to over-use of water resources leading to water pollution and scarcity.
