IMPORTANCE OF WATER

Water that is clean and available readily is important as it contributes to a great extent in maintaining good health. The uses of water are plenty. Human beings use water for drinking, cooking and other domestic purposes. Water has the potential to keep the human body and mind healthy and sound. It is very essential to keep the body hydrated at all times. Most of the diseases are caused either due to inadequate consumption of water or due to the consumption of contaminated water.

It is ironic that in spite of 71% of the Earth’s surface being covered with water, there are parts of the world that have conflicts over the right to having access to particular water supply regions close to their habitats. This is happening because the lives of all organisms living on the Earth are dependent on water, and most of the Earth’s water has already been contaminated with industrial waste, garbage, plastic, oil leaks and so on. Cleaning the water bodies is something that has to be done as soon as possible but what is more important is that we take an oath to stop polluting the water bodies and be bound by it.
