Water is essential for life but availability is decreasing due to human and natural factors. It exists in different forms on Earth including oceans, ice/snow, groundwater, lakes, rivers and streams. The main uses of water are agricultural irrigation, domestic, industrial, thermoelectric and recreational activities. However, population growth, climate change, overuse and pollution have led to freshwater shortage in many regions. Effective management strategies are needed to conserve water resources and resolve conflicts over access to ensure sufficient water for all.

Constitutional provisions for environmental protectionKiran Prasad Naik
The document discusses the evolution of environmental protection provisions in the Indian constitution. It notes that initially the constitution did not have explicit environmental protection provisions. However, provisions like Article 47 implied the need for a pollution-free environment. The 1972 Stockholm Conference raised awareness of environmental issues globally. In response, India introduced Articles 48A and 51A(g) in 1976 to mandate environmental protection as a directive principle and fundamental duty. Further amendments expanded legislative powers to enact environmental laws and assigned environmental roles to local governments. The judiciary has also interpreted fundamental rights like right to life to include the right to a healthy environment. Overall, the constitution has been amended over time to strengthen environmental governance in India.
The document summarizes the Environment (Protection) Act of 1986 in India. The key points are:
1) The Act was passed by Parliament to provide for protecting and improving the environment in India and to implement the decisions of the 1972 UN Conference on the Human Environment.

3) The Act defines terms like pollution, hazardous substances, and occupier. It also outlines rules for regulating environmental pollution from industries and handling of hazardous substances.
