WATER, A TREASURE

Every drop of water is very important...  Though, we know this fact , we still keep on wasting every drop of water which will be one day valuable for us. Now you all might have a question. Then if we get so much of water till today where we never needed to save , then why should we save ?

Yes , we have water . But where do we get them from ? According to science , there is 0.01 % of water which we can consume today . So we gain the same amount of water by rain. Some cases where you often use more water are , when bathing , when washing clothes, when washing dishes, when leaking from pipes .

You might be also thinking , what's going to happen if we waste water ? The water you had wasted will get impure and you will not be able to consume or make any use of it , this is one of the main reasons to get too many dry seasons in certain countries. 

Not only that, water is also getting polluted by certain human activities like dumping garbage to water bodies, improper disposal of factory waste into water bodies causing water contamination, improper disposal of plastic waste,etc. With or without the knowledge of human, we human ourselves have become a major threat for water pollution.  

In some other instances, human being careless about the fact that water is precious and allowing water wastage will result in bad out comes. Leaving the taps open , carelessly letting out leaking taps and pipes , using more water than required to fulfill day to day chores will cause high water wastage domestically.  

You might be thinking , is water such an important source ? Of course its a reason for human lives . It is the medicine for all sorts of diseases like dehydration and some other process taking place inside the living organism. In fact some organisms can not even complete their life cycle without the presence of water.

If you see anyone wasting water . You must stop them ! If you know the difficulty of people who live in dessert places and dry zones face at present, you would think twice before wasting a single drop. 

Now you know the benefits of water and disadvantages of wasting water very well.

So ,It's our duty to use water sustainably and save it for the future generation as well.
