Subject: Crisis of water scarcity and the importance of Water Conservation
Sir,
Through the columns of your esteemed national newspaper, I would like to express my concern on the crisis of scarcity of water which is getting worse year by year. With the rapid growth of population and the pollution of rivers and lakes, the problem of providing safe drinking water for the people is becoming daunting task.
Environmentalists have warned that there will be acute scarcity of water within a few years and there will be riots among people for water.
Water is necessary for life. Water is needed for domestic, agricultural and industrial purposes. There is no resource more precious than water. It is also the most misused resource. There are different methods to conserve water and deal with water scarcity.
1 Rain water harvesting is the best and most suitable method.
2. Prevent dripping of water from taps
and showers. Leakage from water pipes should be quickly repaired.
3. Use the new low-volume water flushtoilets.
4. Adopt water-efficient dishes and clothes washing methods.
5. While brushing teeth or shaving do not waste water. Turn off the tap when not in use.
6. Bottled water is not regulated and contain harmful synthetic chemicals. Carry your own drinking water in non-toxic containers.
7. Efficient irrigation system can prevent water wastage.
8. The roots of trees retain rain water which is then available as underground water. We must stop deforestation and plant more trees.
The scenario is grim and scary. But I still believes that we still have time to undo the damage and prevent water scarcity.
Yours sincerely,
NIRMALA
