Water conservation conclusions

Answer 1

Answer:

Water conservation means the practice of using water efficiently to reduce unnecessary wastage of water. Water conservation is important because fresh clean water is a limited resource and mankind, animals, birds and all all life forms need water for survival. Water pollution is causing scarcity of drinking water in our cities, towns and almost every where. We must conserve water in every possible ways. Some ways to conserve water and prevent wasting of water are:

1) Fix any leak in your toilet and shower quickly.

2) Check for leaks in water pipes both inside and outside the house.

3) Do not waste water by taking unnecessary long showers.

4) While brushing your teeth or shaving, turn off the tap when not in use.

5) Rinse your vegetables in a bowl instead of washing them in a running water tap.

6) Water your lawn only when it needs it and not as and when you want to.

7) Plant drought-resistant trees and plants. There are many beautiful trees and plants which thrive with less water.

8) Reuse the water for rinsing vegetables for watering your garden.

9) Use modern efficient irrigation systems.

10) Children love to play under a hose or sprinkler on a hot day. But this practice is wasteful of precious water and should be discouraged.

Water is a finite resource. If not managed properly it will result in acute scarcity in the future. Let us conserve water for the preservation of human life and other life forms on Earth.

Answer 2

Water conservation helps in maintaining the water content in the water bodies.

• It is important to conserve water as the pure water that is available for drinking is said to be 1%. Since the percentage is less, it is our duty to protect and conserve water.

• Conservation of water means using water efficiently and not wasting it.

• Some habits like opening the taps unnecessarily while brushing teeth, bathing, water leakage, etc., can result in loss of water.

• Contaminating water bodies with waste from industries, washing clothes, bathing, etc., also results in destroying the purity of water.

• Such practices when curtailed will result in the conservation of water.
