5. INTRODUCTION
With only 1% of water available for human consumption,
doesn't it make sense that we should treat water supply with
more respect.
6. Water is an integral part of life on this planets.
Most of the water of earth 97% to be that exact is salt water found in the ocean.
It is odorless, tasteless substance that cover more than three fourth of the
earth surface.
Organism are composed of much water 78%-95%.
Supportive external environmental for aquatic organism.
8. WHAT IS WATER Conservation
Water encompasses the polices, Strategies and activities to manage
Fresh water as a sustainable resources to protect the water environment
and to meet current and future human demand. Climatic change,
population household size and growth and affluence affects how much is
used.
9. GOALS OF WATER Conservation
The goals of water conservation efforts include as follows:-
To ensure availability for future generation the withdrawal of fresh water from an ecosystem should not
exceed natural replacement rate.
Energy Conservation- Water Pumping delivery and waste water treatment facilities consume a
significant amount of energy. In some regions of the world over 15% of total electricity consumption is
devoted to water management.
Habitat Conservation – Minimizing human use helps to preserve fresh water habitat for local wildlife and migrating
waterfowl as well as reducing the need to build new dams and other waste diversion infrastructures.
10. WHY WATER CONSERVATION
Today the Earth is in the need water conservation as the
quantity of water is going down day by day.
Though say that the Earth is a blue planet, the reality is that
only 3% of the total water available is fit for drinking.
Out of that 3% also, 2.997% is locked up in polar ice caps and
only 0.003%is there in form of surface and ground water.
11. 1. WATER POLLUTION :-
Water is a major global problem which
requires on going evolution and revision of
water resource policy at all levels (inter
nutrients down to individual aquifers and
wells.) It has been suggested that it is the
leading worldwide cause of deaths and
diseases.
12. 2. OVER CONSUMPTION AND MISUSE :-
In rural areas, the flood irrigation is followed which has minimum
efficiency of water and high misuse of it. the people of rural areas
do not have much awareness and knowledge about the irrigation
pattern this leads to much more wastage of water.
13. 3. Groundwater over drafting :-
The excessive use of groundwater
in our agricultural industries is
leading to diminished yields and
wasted water. Over 70% of our
water is used to grow crops, and
most of it is wasted due to leaky
pipes and poor watering techniques.
14. 4. CLIMATE CHANGE :-.
Climate change is changing the way water evaporates and where it
rains, pushing rainfall further south in both hemispheres. Global
warming has altered the rainfall pattern in India dramatically.
Previously, average monsoon rainfall spanned 45 days. This number
has now decreased to 22 days, with each monsoon having a smaller
intensity of rain
15. 1. DROUGHT:-.
A drought is a period of time when an area or region experiences below-
normal precipitation. The lack of adequate precipitation, either rain or
snow, can cause reduced soil moisture or groundwater, diminished
stream flow, crop damage, and a general water shortage. Droughts are
the second-most costly weather events after hurricanes
16. 2. AGRICULTURALPROBLEMS :-
No water means no crops.
Previous region with a good
amount of water have seen a
decline in the groundwater, and
without waste they cannot grow
crops
17. 3. CONFLICTSOVERWATER:-
Water conflict is a term describing a conflict between countries, states, or groups over the rights to access
water resources. ... As freshwater is a vital, yet unevenly distributed natural resource, its availability often
impacts the living and economic conditions of a country or region
LOCAL LEVEL :- Between village or streets or house
NATIONAL LEVEL :- Cauvery River, Between Karnataka and TamilNadu
INTERNATIONAL LEVEL :- Jordan River water conflict, Among Sudan, Egypt and Ethiopia
18. 4. DISEASE :-
MINAMATA DISEASE :- Cause due to methyl, Mercury contaminated water. It was seen in Japan.
ITAI-ITAI :- This disease is cause due to heavy metal cadmium it was seen in Japan.
FLUOROSIS :- It is cause due to excess of Fluoride content in drinking water it cause weakening of
teeth and Bones.
BLUE BABY SYNDROME :- It is cause due to presence of excess of Nitrate in drinking water.
19. 1. USING A 3R (REDUCE, REUSE AND RE-CYCLE) :-
The 3R's of water conservation
are Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
the water which are the heart of
the global water conservation.
The first and most effective
component of the water
conservation is reducing water
consumption
20. 2. POLLUTION CONTROL :-
Steps has been takes for pollution control and lows and polices to have formulate to regulate
water pollution. Standard has been set for clean water by the Government. Efforts has been
take to divert all waste water from point pollution sources through sewage treatment plants .
Instead of releasing then into surface. Water resource, In case of non point pollution sources it
is necessary to educate antigens about methods of controlling non point pollution to avoid
polluting local river , lakes and aquifers by reducing the use of pesticides and fertilizers, Clean
in and fading practices in the available surface water sources has to be stopped.
i. Reduce the Use of Chemicals When Cleaning
ii. Dispose of your Medications Properly
iii. Avoid the Use of Pesticides and Herbicides
iv. Avoid Disposing Items into the Toilet
Water (prevention and control of pollution) act 1974, amended 1988
21. Rain water harvesting is the
accumulation and storage of
rain water for reuse rather the
allowing it to run off digging
ponds lakes cannel expending
the water reservoir and
installing rain water catching
ducts and filtration system of
harvesting rain water could be
used for agriculture lone
irrigation gardening and after
filtering also can be used for
drinking.
3. RAINWATER HARVESTING:-
22. 4. WATERSHADE MANAGEMENT
As small project emphasis has been given on water shade management
it improves the recharging the ground water decrease over land flow and
fluids and reduce the problem of water logging and shilling
23. 5. IEC(INFORMATION EDUCATION AND COMMUNICATION)
A fundamental component of water conservation strategy is in formation education and communication
for awaring the people by different water programmers. Developing communication educates land
managers policy makers , farmers and the general public in the another important strategy utilized in
water conservation. Communication of the science of how water system works is an important aspect
while crating a management plan to conserve water. It is often used for ensuring the right management
plan to be put into action.
24. 6 ENHANCEMENT OF SURFACE STORAGE CAPACITY
Most of the fresh water which pass into the ocean through the streams and rivers as flood flow are of
no use of use of manleind, Efforts' has seen taken to store this water as surface storage in tanks
reservoirs etc. For use during dry seasons . Natural water scarcity by building dames to catch water
that would escape to the sea by impounding reservoirs to the water dams helps to ensure a constant
supply to water.
India has as large no of dams developed in the form of multipurpose river valley project such as Beas
Sutlej project, Ghagra nagal project , Damodar valley project , Nagarjur Sdasgar project and other.
These dams Source to store water for irrigation purpose, and the potential energy stored in used for
hydroelectric power generation.
25. 7. PROTECTION OF GROUND WATER RESOURCES
When precipitation occurs some water in filtrates the solid and goes under causes
the ground water supply to not be able to be used as resource of fresh drinking
water. The natural regeneration of contaminated ground water can takes year to
replenish potential found water contamination include Storage and Septic system
uncontrolled and hazards Water landfills and road solid. These decreases the
replenishment of available fresh water so premature measures has been taken up to
protect ground water resources from contamination . This management and
conservation of water.
26. JAL JEEWAN MISSION
The government launched Jal Jeevan Mission
(JJM) on India 73 independence day on august
15, 2019.
The Mahatma Gandhi 150 birth anniversary
recently honourable PM was also conferred with
the global energy and environment leadership
award by Cambridge Energy Research associate
(CERA).
Atal Bhujal yojana Atal Jal , a ground water
management
scheme was launched on the 95 birth anniversary of
Former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajapyee , on
December
25, 2019.
27. ADVANTAGES OF WATER CONSERVATION
I don’t think anyone can say that water conservation has Disadvantages.
Factories produce harmful waste products which if purified and discarded helps in keeping the
surrounding of the
factories safe and keep local residents out of health problem.
Rivers and lakes will remain clean.
Hence can be used for irrigation on cultivation purpose.
Fishes and other aquatic life forms can breath well in the water.
Various treatment methods like tricking filter method , activated sludge process and RCB help in
purifying sewage
water.
Nitrogen and phosphorus in sewages remain in the effluence from secondary treatment . These
inorganic nutrients
can cause eutrophication.
Save money
Minimizes water pollution and health risks.
Protects drinking water resources.
Reduces the need for costly water supply and new waste water treatment facilities.
28. Concluding I would like to say that water is an essential natural resources and
very important part of human life and hence should be conserved.
This will help us and our future generation to live a longer, better and a peaceful
life on this planet.
