Answer:

Water as one of essential elements of life but it seems not being paid much attention by the majority of people. The

reason for our existence; Water everywhere on the planet is a basic part of the global hydrologic cycle, it 's a finite resource. The amount of water supply in the global hydrologic cycle does not increase. Humans share the Earth with other creatures who also need water to live and survive, so water shortage is not only a problem for humans only but also against wildlife and nature. Many countries around the world are…show more content…

Pollution of water is either caused by people themselves; they throw garbage into fresh water resources making it unacceptable for drinking or in the developing countries, sewage is dumped into rivers which are sometimes considered as fresh water resources. A solution for water shortage had been discussed over the past years, many scientists and civil engineers used to have standard solutions for water scarcity by building more dams, desalination of seas and oceans ' water and building pipelines that bring water from humid areas to dry ones. These technological solutions weren 't very effective in fact the water demand increased and they are also very expensive in the ecological and economic environment. In my opinion, I think we should ask ourselves "how to decrease the demand on water?" instead of asking "how can we provide new water resources and supplies?" in order to achieve a response for water scarcity and try to save the water resources that we have left before it 's too late. There are many ways we can apply to decrease the water demand such as educating the society to change their behavior of consuming water, Improving the irrigation and agricultural behaviors, Recycling wastewater, putting an approximate price to water, developing efficient desalination plants, putting regulations and rules by the government to punish anyone who commits a crime against water, and finally controlling the population growth.

Answer:

Water Conservation

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. A few decades ago environmentalists warned that there will be riots amount neighbours for a bucket of water. This is happening today in many places. We must stop deforestation and plant more trees on a war footing.
