This document discusses the importance of water and the global water crisis. It notes that water is essential to life and health, yet 884 million people lack access to safe drinking water. For these people, water is a source of disease rather than health. The document then discusses a water mission aimed at promoting efficient water use, augmenting supply in critical areas, and ensuring effective water resource management. Key goals include better management of surface and groundwater as well as water conservation and wetlands preservation. The mission recognizes water and sanitation as vital necessities following both natural and man-made disasters.

2. INTRODUCTION
Water is the common name applied to the liquid form (state) of
the hydrogen and oxygen compound H2O. Pure water is an
odorless, tasteless, clear liquid. Water is one of nature's most
important gifts to mankind. Essential to life, a person's survival
depends on drinking water. Water is one of the most essential
elements to good health -- it is necessary for the digestion and
absorption of food; helps maintain proper muscle tone; supplies
oxygen and nutrients to the cells; rids the body of wastes; and
serves as a natural air conditioning system. Health officials
emphasize the importance of drinking at least eight glasses of
clean water each and every day to maintain good health.

3. WATER MISSION
This mission ‘s aim is to promote efficient water
use, argument supply in critical areas and ensure
effective management of water resources.
To have better management of surface and ground
water. Also conserve wet lands.
To spread the importance of water amongst people

4. Following any disaster, manmade or natural, safe
NECESSARY
WATER IS ALWAYS water and proper sanitation are of vital importance.
In the case of natural disasters, water sources can be
contaminated or altogether destroyed. Waste can
also enter the water source, rendering it poisonous
to anyone who drinks it. Earthquakes, tsunamis and
hurricanes can destroy the infrastructure necessary
to keep safe water flowing and can even cause water
sources to disappear completely.
Water sources can also be compromised in the case of
man-made disasters, such as warfare, famine or
politics. People caught in the midst of war, or living
in refugee camps, are extremely susceptible to disease
due to living in close quarters and inadequate
sanitation.

5. No Health and Hygiene
For most of us, we began learning
about personal hygiene before we
began to talk. We continue to teach
our children in the same
way, constantly reminding them to
cover their mouths when they
sneeze and wash their hands after
using the restroom. To us, these are
basic hygiene practices that
contribute to a clean, healthy
lifestyle. We understand that these
simple routines prevent the spread
of germs and keep us from becoming
sick.

6. NO ADEQUATE SANITATION
Many people in the world do not have common
facilities for sanitation.
Most of us have never thought of a restroom
as anything other than a toilet and some
privacy. It isn’t uncommon for us to complain
when the seat is less than spotless or when we
can’t reach the roll.
Sanitation, which we take for granted, is non-
existent for more than 2.5 billion people around
the world – that’s 38% of the world’s population.
Rather than using facilities as we do, people in
developing countries often defecate in make-
shift latrines or open places. More often that
not, their drinking water sources are
contaminated as a result.
And so it begins, the endless cycle of
waterborne disease, sickness and death. Lack of
adequate sanitation is yet another inhibitor to
the prosperity of the developing world, stripping

7. NO SAFE
WATER
Water: We drink it. We cook with it. We use it to wash our hands. We use
it to shower. We use it for laundry and dishes. We use it to wash our cars
and our pets. We water our lawns with it. And we even fill up swimming
pools and play in it.
The truth is, water is an integral part of life as we know it. Now imagine
this, the impossible – what would life be like without it? What would life
be like if all we had were dark, murky, bacteria-infested water? Would
you drink it? Would anyone drink it?
For more than 884 million people, one in every eight, this is reality. For
them, water is not a source of abundant life, health and well-being as
it is for us. Rather, it is the birthing ground for sickness and disease.
Water as they know it, strips them of opportunities for education and
work, and contributes to an endless cycle of poverty and despair. This is
the global water crisis, and it steals the lives of nearly 6,000 people each
day, most of them children.

8. TOILET DISPLACEMENT DEVICES
Toilet Displacement Devices. Plastic
containers (such as plastic milk jugs)
can be filled with water or pebbles
and placed in a toilet tank to reduce
the amount of water used per flush.
By placing one to three such
containers in the tank (making sure
that they do not interfere with the
flushing mechanisms or the flow of
water), more than l gallon of water
can be saved per flush. A toilet
dam, which holds back a reservoir of
water when the toilet is flushed, can
also be used instead of a plastic
container to save water. Toilet dams
result in a savings of 1 to 2 gallons of
water per flush (USEPA, l991b).
