SAVE WATER, AND IT WILL SAVE YOU ….

\n\nBeyond an iota of doubt, we all are surrounded by water. It covers over 70 percent of our earth’s surface and makes up approximately 60 percent of the human body.\n\nSo, why are so many people concerned about conserving water? Because, despite the fact that though there’s so much of it around us, yet -only a tiny fraction of that water (less than 1 percent) is accessible and safe for human consumption. Also consider that the average North American personally uses 80–100 gallons of water every day. With all of that water constantly flowing, it can be easy to forget just how rare freshwater really is. And, although it is possible to treat unsafe water e.g. sea water, in order to purify it for consumption, the process itself requires massive amounts of effort and money.\n\nSo, when it comes down to it, every drop that can be conserved by us, will only help us all out in the long run. But how can each of us do our part to spread the word about the importance of water conservation? Well, believe it or not, sometimes a simple slogan can do wonders.\n\nWater is an integral part of our life:\n\nNo one can survive without water. But nowadays we see that People from urban and semi urban areas in particular, don’t care about the problem. But still, there are many places on Earth where People can’t even Get DRINKING WATER.\n\nConserve water, conserve life:\n\nAlways conserve it, preserve it, and go with the flow. It takes a lot of Blue to stay Green. You never know the worth of water until the supply runs dry. If we don’t learn to conserve, one day, we all will be like a fish out of water. Water, water, water is every where, but millions of people around the globe are dying due to its nonavailability to drink.\n\nHow much water we waste daily:\n\nAs per estimates, about 95 per cent of the water entering our homes goes down the drain. Running the tap while brushing our teeth can waste 4 gallons of water. Older toilets can use 3 gallons of clean water with every flush, while new toilets use as little as 1 gallon. \n\nAccording to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), water leakage may cause a home to waste 10,000 gallons of water per year. United States households lose over 1 trillion gallons in total each year. Ten percent of American homes waste 90 gallons of water on a daily basis. The situation in Canada is also pari- passu with the said stats.\n\nSave water to Secure our future:\n\n96.5% of Earth’s water is in oceans as salt water. 3.5% of water is Freshwater lakes, frozen Glaciers & polar ice caps. From 3.5% of Fresh water, 70% - locked in ice caps and less than 1 % is readily accessible world’s fresh water. 50% of worlds’ Freshwater reserves lies in: Canada, Indonesia, Russia, Colombia, China, Brazil. 1/3rd of world’s population lives in such countries.\n\nWithout water living is impossible:\n\nwater is the most important substances on earth. All plants and creatures must have water to survive. In the event that there is insufficient or no water, there would be no life on earth, because, in the absence of water there will be no grains, no vegetation, nothing to cap it all.\n\nWater is the driver of all Nature:\n\nNature always wears the colors of the spirit i.e. green in particular. In every drop of water, we drink, some of the water has already passed through many living organisms, [fishes, trees, bacteria, worms in the soil, including people]. Living systems cleanse water and make it fit, among other things, for human consumption.\n\nThe exhibition of of water in art form- in various paintings et al - has been represented throughout the ages, from as far back as ancient Egypt we know water was displayed on tomb walls as zigzag lines (hieroglyphic signs). Leonardo da Vinci an Italian polymath of the Renaissance, exhibited water flow in his scores of paintings to drive home the importance of water in our lives.\n\nTime is opportune to take remedial measures: \n\nLife on earth would not exist without liquid water. We all need to work -as a unit-to save water, sky and land for ourselves and for our future generations.\n\nA river is more than an amenity; it is a treasure. Life depends on water, but the reservoir[s] depend on us. If we don’t learn to conserve, we’ll all be like a fish out of water, and we know the ultimate result.\n\nWe can save water daily during our activities of daily life, namely: turning off the water- in between- while brushing our teeth, saves more water than we all think.\n\nWater is a priceless treasure so please save it with pleasure. Rich or poor; everyone needs water. If we take care of water properly, then a safe and prosperous future is waiting for us.\n\n Conclusion: \n\nSave water, as we cannot manufacture it. Save Water, as it’s not just a drop in the bucket; it’s life. A drop of water is indeed life for a thirsty person.\n\nWe, the humans, are wasting water everyday. We need to do our children, a favour by saving tomorrow’s life saver;\n\nWater I mean. Water is an essence of life. One can live without food for days but not without water. So, understand the importance of water and value; it not just for yourself but for the future generations. Water is the elixir of life. Save water save future. It takes a lot of blue to stay green. Water= Life Conservation = Future. Make Every Drop of Water Count.\n\n Let us save water; it will save our later generation as well!!\n\n
