Dear student,
The need of the hour is to conserve and manage water because although the total composition of water on earth is almost 70 per cent but fresh water reserves are only 2 per cent. Hence, in the present scenario of increasing rate of population, the resources in order to be equitably distributed, should be managed and preserved. we need water for the following reasons:
to survive
irrigation
industrial production
maintain the balance in nature
Some methods that be used to conserve water are as follows:
In hill and mountainous regions, people built diversion channels like the ‘guls’ or ‘kuls’ of the Western Himalayas for agriculture.
‘Rooftop rain water harvesting’ was commonly practised to store drinking water, particularly in Rajasthan.
In the flood plains of Bengal, people developed inundation channels to irrigate their fields.
In arid and semi-arid regions, agricultural fields were converted into rain fed storage structures that allowed the water to stand and moisten the soil like the ‘khadins’ in Jaisalmer and ‘Johads’ in other parts of Rajasthan.
