Life started from water, our body is made up of 60% of water. Brain and heart of adult human composed of 73% water. Our planet has 70% of water. Water is very important for human existence. Though there no option available for it and we know it is available in limited quantity but still we waste it, pollute it. It is like we are destroying our life source with our own hands.
In the future water is going to be a scares resource. If we don’t act now, our grandchildren might kill each for water. We, humans, have created this problem and we can solve it too. We need to conserve water and we should prevent it from pollution. We, collectively and individually need to get habits, rules, and policies which will help solve the future and in some areas imminent water crisis.
Here are the solution we can opt for conserving water
Water Pollution In India, rivers are so badly pullulated that water from it not drinkable, and not even good for other uses. It contains poisonous chemicals, minerals which makes it unusable for human and animal consumption. A big rural population lives by rivers, we are endangering their health with the pollution.
Along with policies, rules, actions, and penalties; we need to take individual efforts too. It is not the government’s responsibility only, we also need to perform our duties. We blame the administration for problems but the reality is that we are also part of it and to solve this both needs to work together. We should not throw garbage, plastic in rivers, we should use water wisely. Societies and colonies should opt for rainwater harvesting. We can solve this problem only if government and citizens come together.
Rain Water Harvesting
India is a tropical country where we get a good amount of rain in the monsoon. Most of the water just run away to sea. Rainwater harvesting is a good strategy with which we can increase the groundwater table. In this method, we collect the rainwater from terraces, rooftops to one place and let it absorb in the ground. If this is done by all, within few year groundwater level will increase and that water can be pumped with wells and borewells. We can also store this water and use for different purposes too.
River Rejuvenation We need to rejuvenate dried up rivers. Social initiatives like “Save Rivers” from Isha foundation should be appreciated and implemented. If we rejuvenate the existing rivers a big set of a population will get the water for use. Ganga is the biggest and most revered river in India. It is considered as a goddess too but we have polluted it beyond imagination. Million of people from Delhi to West Bengal live by this river, if we cleaned and made it pollution free, it will provide not just water but a lively hood for millions of people who live by the river. We have seen the Indian government have a separate ministry for this work, this is a good initiative and needs to be implemented.
River Linking
The Indian government is framing an ambitious plan to link selected Indian rivers. Under which excess water from one river will be diverted to other areas which don’t have good rainfall. It is a geologically risky plan, the government needs to consider all pros and cons. But if river linking works as planned it will benefit millions of people directly and indirectly. While doing so, the government should consider and find solutions to preserve water life and surrounding ecology.
Water Bodies and river beautification
We need to clean existing clogged water bodies like lakes, dams, ponds, wells so that it collects and saves more water. We also need to do river beatification like Sabarmati riverfront, it will increase awareness and people will acknowledge the importance of rivers and water conservation.
We also need to build more dams, it increases water storage and also helps to create electricity which is also a big problem in India. But the government needs to consider all environmental, ecological impacts while building dams. People should also support dams, we should not oppose government initiatives for sake of the political game.
Water Distribution and Repairs
We don’t have a good water distribution network. We see a huge loss of water when a water pipe breaks. We should have predefined, well-regulated procedures and equipment to fix the problems as early as possible.
Conclusion
Water is the base of life, its where life is started. We can survive with the underperforming economy, basic infrastructure, and absence of social media but we cannot survive without water. We need to acknowledge the importance of water and take part in government initiatives to solve the problem. We also need to take individual efforts too. This looming water crisis is created by us and we can solve it too, but it will be possible only if government and people come together.
