    Some interesting information about water

    We all know the importance of water. We also know that water scarcity is a major problem for the rapidly increasing population of the world. We have heard that the Third World War will happen due to the dispute on the use of water.

    So, water is very important. Let me share some latest updates on water. Please note that this information changes in every second! So, if you check these data after one hour, you will not find it. You will find some different date.

    So, information at 8.37 a.m. IST on 17th July 2024:

    (i) Water used till now this year all over the world: 2,527,709,234 million liters

    (ii) Death all over the world caused by water-related disease this year: 457,592

    (iii) People with no access to a safe drinking water source (all over the world): 762,268,892

    I have obtained this second-to-second information from a very interesting website: https://www.worldometers.info/

    Good information from the author. Yes. Water is very essential for living and no water to mankind. As the population is increasing, the scarcity of water will also increase. So as human beings, we have to conserve water. It is very unfortunate to know that even in this well-developed and advanced world also there are about 762,268,892 people that do not have reach to safe drinking water. How to convert sea water to drinking water without much expenditure is a question which needs an answer,

    Very nice and interesting information. It is really sad that so many people are deprived of drinking water.

    Rain water is the main source of fresh water we use for domestic use. Once the river flows into the oceans, it becomes unfit for drinking. I once read an article about Israel where they were using some technology to make sea water fit for drinking. They are using technology to find solutions for all their problems. They have some innovative agricultural methods which nobody an imagine in our country. Oceans have enormous amount of salty water and if we can find a feasible method to purify that water then water crisis can be solved.
    Thanks and regards.

    In spite of the facts given by the author, it is pity to see people wasting the water openly. We ourselves should avoid wasting the water. This should be made aware in our children also from, at least now onwards.
    Last week I read that some school children pouring the remaining water of their water bottle on the road. A teacher noticed this and on the next day the teacher told other teachers about this and collectively all teachers in their classrooms advised all students, not to pour the water from water bottle and if they find any difficulty in carrying every one should pour the waters under the tree in the school campus.

    We need to take care of conserving water at all costs. Our perception is that this is a rainy reason and why worry unnecessarily regarding water - conservation at this stage? We need to rectify our issue since our population has currently reached an unmanageable level and the requirement of water will be felt at all moments.
    We need to stop all our bad practices in relation to extravagant on water issue considering the requirement of water of the whole year.

    Today I had some free time and went to the website mentioned by the author ( https://www.worldometers.info/). I spent some time on this site. I don't know how authenticated the information is, but we get a lot of information including births, deaths, world population, energy requirement, the energy produced etc., at are given moment. This year and today information is also displayed there and the metre is changing continuously like or car running metre. We can refer to this site at any time if any information is required.
