Subject: Water scarcity and preservation of water.
Sir,
Through your esteemed newspaper, I would like to highlight the scarcity of water and some ways to stop wastage and preserve it. My write-up is enclosed for favour of publication.
Water scarcity: What things can you do about it?
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.
Approximately 73% of the earth is water. But fresh and drinkable water is only about 3%. The remaining 70% is undrinkable salty sea and ocean water. So it is imperative to conserve this 3% of water. Every drop is precious. We must not pollute it nor waste it. These is the need of the hour. This is a challenge we cannot afford to ignore. 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 flushtoilets.
4. Adopt water-efficient dishes and clothes washing methods.
5. While brushing your 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. The plastic used to bottle water become litters that pollute our rivers and lakes.
7. Efficient irrigation system can prevent water wastage.
8. Industrial waste and hospital waste are dumped in fresh water river and lakes. The water become so polluted that drinking it would result in diseases, unknown diseases with no cure.
9. The roots of trees retain rain water which is then available as underground water.
Conclusion:
A few decades ago environmentalists warned that there will be violent riots amoung neighbours just for a bucket of water. This is happening today in many places. Don't waste water. Stop polluting water. Stop deforestation and plant more trees on a war footing.
