WATER

One of the most important Resource which we need to survive is WATER . But its scarcity is really becoming a TRUTH. I as a person am used to using WATER very lavishly :) . The society in which i live has WATER 24 * 7 . And then can u imagine what happened recently??? One Night .. i saw there was no water and i had not filled any ...i really panicked and checked the very next day and found out that for 2 days there will be a small problem and we have to store WATER and use it judiciously. I was really tensed. BUT U know what this only made me realize that I should start using WATER carefully...I never wasted it PER SAY,,, but surely the consumption was a lot.....Trust Me ! :)

But the fact remains that MOTHER NATURE is giving us a hint ... and WE ALL must be very careful in utilising our natural resource specially WATER . LETS NOT WASTE WATER...IT WILL COST US DEARLY NOW AND IN THE FUTURE ...SPECIALLY THE COMING GENERATIONS WILL HAVE A ROUGH TIME.............

LETS DO OUR BEST IN CONSERVING AND SAVING WATER........................................................

When something is missing ...we can feel the value ...I dont know why it happens this way but ...its a fact... I read a very inspiring article... which i thought i can share...

WATER , the source and sustainer of life , the basis of civilization......what makes our planet unique in known universe. Over the past few decades , global WATER consumption has increased to the point where we are now using up our freshwater supplies faster than they are being replenished. Climate change is exacerbating the global water crisis , changing rainfall patterns , intensifying droughts , melting glaciers , putting the most vulnerable members of society at even greater risk.

These challenges confront a world where , despite our advanced technological development , huge numbers of people lack basic access to safe drinking WATER and sanitation. This is literally a matter of life and death for more than 1 BILLION people on our planet.

WATER and sanitation are at the crux of global development challenges and represent , in the end , a challenge to our collective humanity .

U know ... " Some of the great rivers like the NILE in AFRICA and the COLORADO in the US often dont reach the sea any more ...... "

U know ... " As countries dry up , they start to import food .CHINA is at that point right now. INDIA will be next...... "

U Know ... "In many homes toilets are responsible for a third or more of all WATER use . The US has cut the amount of WATER used in toilets by three quarters ove the past two decades through more efficient toilet and plumbing design "

U Know ... " By 2025 , it is estimated that about two-thirds of the worlds population - about 5.5 billion people - will live in areas facing moderate to severe WATER crisis "

U Know ... " The average US citizen uses about 380 liters to 670 liters of WATER at home every day . The average African family uses about 20 liters of WATER each day "

U Know ... " Every week an estimated 42,000 people die from diseases related to low-quality drinking water and lack of sanitation . Over 90 % of these deaths are of children under the age of 5 , and half of the worlds hospital beds are occupied by patients suffering from waterborne diseases "
SHOCKING..................................... !!!

SO DIRE AS THEY ARE , THESE PROBLEMS ARE NOT BEYOND OUR ABILITY TO SOLVE , AND THAT EACH STEADY , CREATIVE STEP TOWARD THEIR SOLUTION IS AN ACT OF TRANSFORMATION , RESTORING THE DIGNITY OF LIFE.

SO DEAR FRIENDS ......LETS DO OUR BEST TO PROTECT MOTHER NATURE........FOR US !!
