Water…the precious gift ...

[muhamedr]

DO YOU KNOW?

We are all water creatures. It makes up: 60% of our body, 70 % of our brain, and 80% of our blood. We can go almost a month without food but we cannot survive even a week without water. The same water that existed on Earth billions of years ago still exists today. It covers most of the planet but just 3 % is fresh water (and most of that is ice). Less than 1% of all fresh water is readily accessible for human use. To put it in another way, less than 0.010% of all the water on Earth is available to drink.

Of all the clean water that enters your home is used to flush toilets. One toilet flush uses 3 gallons, a single load of laundry-40 gallons, 10 minute shower-50 gallons, brushing with the tap running-4 gallons, brushing with the tap off-0.25 gallons.

Water crisis is looming. Our water sources are under pressure. As the world population is growing day by day so is the usage of water..Even the so called modernization in many of our cities is gulping down our water reservoirs

Millions of people in the world live on less than 3 gallons each day. In most of our rural and semi-urban areas people walk miles to get a pot of water... 3 in 10 people lack access to adequate sanitation. 1 in 5 does not have access to safe drinking water. According to the WHO, a child dies from a water- related disease every 15 seconds. The emerging worldwide water shortage is serious. It is been said, we are going to run out of water before we run out of oil. Due to over-pumping, the groundwater in several countries is almost gone. Depleted aquifers lead to cutbacks in agricultural harvests which lead to more food shortages and shooting prices. This has already been reflected in the large grain deficits. The major producers of grains like India, China, Brazil, Russia, Egypt and Pakistan there has been a sharp grain deficit too amongst these countries. Our water problem is fast becoming a hunger problem.
So what does it all mean?

Give water a second thought.
WATER IS PRECIOUS ..……Save Water …
