Water
Mission
What kinds are there?

97% of the water is salt water, and is found
in the oceans of the world.




3% of the water is fresh water
  on which we depend.
Condensation
The movement
through plants                    The Clouds form
Transpiration




                 Precipitation       Evaporation

                 The rain falls     The vapor rises
India is already a water-stressed country and the growing demand for
water across all sectors coupled with an increased incidence of
droughts, floods and declining groundwater4 are emerging as
significant water security challenges. One sixth of the country’s
geographical area is drought prone and, on average, floods affect
almost 7.5 million hectares of land area per year




The National Water Mission - one of the key missions of
the National Action Plan on Climate Change, aims at the
‘conservation of water, minimizing wastage and ensuring
its more equitable distribution both across and within
states through integrated water resources development
and management’.
66% of the human body is
made up of water.

At just 2% dehydration your
performance decreases by
around 20%.

We should drink at least 1½
litres of water a day.
80% of all illness in
developing countries is caused
by water related diseases.
90% of wastewater in
developing countries is
discharged directly into rivers
and streams without treatment.
Two thirds of our planet is
covered by water.

97.5% of the water is saltwater.

The majority of freshwater is
beyond our reach, locked into
polar snow and ice.
The number of people
with access to clean
water has doubled in the
last 20 years.

1.1 billion people in the
world still do not have
access to safe water.
This is nearly 20% of
the population.

                                           Water uses
Do you leave the tap on
when you clean your
teeth? You waste 5
litres of water.
You only need ¼ litre!
An average bath uses 80
litres of water.
An average shower only
uses 35 litres.
The UN estimates
that by 2025, 75%
of the world
population won’t
have reliable, clean
water.
