Water, water every where, but not in Pakistan. An Essay!

"AN ESSAY ON WATER CRISIS "

To save one Drop's water have improved the living conditions of more than 1.4 million people, in 13 countries. 

Water is one of the precious natural resources in the world, but it is becoming scar. Particularly in Pakistan the situation is too alarming . if water crises prevail, it would be fierce below to agriculture sector of Pakistan in the result of its devastation and it will lead to an immense loss of economy. 

For every drop of water you waste, you must know that somewhere on earth someone is desperately looking for a drop of water 

The most consumed sectors of water are irrigation power generation, drinking and industry . People waste water due to its low monetary value. agriculture is our backbone and the water flowing in the channels to the crops is its blood line, and if there is no or less water then we should be prepared for facing problems economically as well as socially. 

Thousands lived without love, but not without water so save water. 

Water scarcity, both natural and of human origin, is the lack of sufficient available water resources to meet the demands within a region. Water is unequally distributed over time and space. Much of it is wasted, polluted and unsustainable managed. 

There is no global water scarcity as such, but a number of places and regions are chronically short of water because its use at the global level has increased more than twice as fast as the population over the last century. 

Pressure on water resources is increasing in several parts of the world, especially in China, India, Pakistan, in the Middle East and many countries and regions of Africa. 

Water shortages have a great impact on human health, socio-economic development, and the environment. 

In the poorest countries, some children can’t go to school, because they are either too sick or they have to walk for a long time to reach a water source. Even when they can attend, many children cannot learn because of their fatigue, heavy responsibilities and worries for their families Water scarcity generates sanitation problems by forcing people to drink unsafe water. In fact, when water is scarce people tend to store it at home, which increases the risk of domestic water contamination and creates breeding grounds for mosquitoes, which transmit dengue and malaria. 

Water scarcity has different negative impacts on rivers, lakes, and other freshwater resources. It harms the environment in several ways including increased salinity, nutrient pollution, Improving water infrastructure must be a priority, as water conservation and efficiency are key components of sustainable water management. Solar desalination and smart irrigation systems are great examples of clean technology for water efficiency and control. That obviously applies even more to the agriculture and farming sector - the largest consumer of water. 

Rainwater harvesting and recycled wastewater also allow to reduce scarcity and ease pressures on groundwater and other natural water bodies. Groundwater recharge, that allows water moving from surface water to groundwater, is a well-known process to prevent water scarcity. 

Without proper sanitation, the water becomes full of diseases and unsafe to drink. That is why addressing pollution, measuring and monitoring water quality is essential. Besides, improving the sewage systems in specific areas is another way to prevent water scarcity from becoming any worse 

Education is critical to solve the water crisis. In fact, in order to cope with future water scarcity, it is necessary to radically reform all forms of consumption, from individual use to the supply chains of large companies.
