उत्तर
The Need of the Hour: Rainwater Harvesting
By Rama
Water is becoming a limited natural resource worldwide. In an article on the National Geographic website about the Fresh Water Crisis, it is mentioned that of the 70% of water that covers the earth, only 2.5% is suitable for drinking, and just 1% of that is easily accessible. In the same article, the author talks about how people are wasting this limited resource. The growing scarcity of water is due to rapid population growth, rising demand for food and cash crops, increasing urbanization, and rising standards of living.
On the other hand, people are writing articles and papers on how to address this scarcity issue, and all the resources presented focus on water conservation as a solution. I have heard people talk about water scarcity, but until I read the article mentioned above, I didn’t realize it was this bad. In another article by Michael Parfit, it was argued that if there is no water, there is no life. We live by the grace of water. She talked about what would happen if the water scarcity problem were not solved. There’s a need to raise awareness of this matter.
Rainwater harvesting is the need of the hour. If we let the rainwater go to waste, we will soon have no drinking water. The sources of freshwater are depleting rapidly. We need to take serious steps and move to a sustainable way of living.
