What Is the Campaign About?:
LITTLE DROP OF WATER CAN SAVE LIFE ,DON'T WASTE IT

As world's population is approaching 7 billion people and growing by approximately 75 million each year. Economic development is essential if we are to provide every human being with the food, housing, healthcare and quality of life they deserve. A vital requirement for economic growth is available and affordable energy. By 2015, the world will require 30 percent more energy than is produced today. Sustainable growth requires our commitment to the intelligent development of conventional energy resources, use of the most modern energy technologies, expansion of renewable energy sources, and conservation of demand. For future generations, we must both meet our energy needs and protect our environment, including the control of global warming.

The best way is to save our planet from global warming is to conserve water. As water is the basic need of all living being such animals, plants and human being ,so it is our responsibility is to first conserves it and use as minimum as possible, as little drop of water can save the life of every one. Now new invention came to use water as an alternative source of fuel. so we have to be very careful in use of water such as in bathroom, we should use showers, in cleaning use a bucket of water instead of cleaning with pipe. Water is something that is easy to waste in our homes if we are not careful. Taking shorter showers and installing low-flow showerheads and faucets can save you money and help save the environment. Faucets can run seven to eleven liters of water each minute. Turn off taps when you aren't using them. Changing from baths to showers conserves water, as a bath uses more than 80 liters of water; where a shower uses less than 40 liters every five minutes. Replace older, larger-use toilets with the newer ultra-low flush models. Low-flush toilets conserve water and reduce the greenhouse gases produced in the water-purification process. When buying a new clothes washer consider purchasing a water-saving model. Be efficient when doing laundry, by washing only full loads in the clothes washer. When buying a new dishwasher, consider purchasing a water-saving model. We also need to be concerned with protecting the quality of water at home. We need to be careful before dumping something down the drain. Prescription drugs, over the counter medicines, cosmetics, mouthwash and antibacterial soap can remain in our water supply if we do not dispose of them properly. Alternatives to phosphate containing and other hazardous cleaners that could ultimately end up in our drinking water should be used in the home. Another issue when it comes to drinking water is to look into a water filter system and cut down on bottled water where you can, to cut down on the use of plastics, which can have some toxic chemicals in them and can cause health issues and also harm the environment.

Hot water usage is something that more homeowners are concerned about. Hot water costs money and also uses energy, some of which can contribute to global warming. Water heating can account for up to a quarter of a home's energy consumption. Selecting the right type of water heater and using energy-efficient water-heating strategies can assist homeowners reduce their energy use, lower their energy bills, and maintain sufficient amounts of hot water. The size and type of water heater needs to be best suited to the needs of a specific home. You need to make sure your water heater and hot water pipes are well insulated as well. Do not heat your water unnecessarily. One thing you may consider is solar hot water. While conventional water heating appliances cost money and pollute the air, solar hot water heating uses only clean energy from the sun, it consumes no dirty fossil fuels, and it pays for itself in energy savings.

Outside the home, lawn watering and other outdoor uses can account for up to half of home water use. Studies have shown that as much as half of this outdoor water use is wasteful. Be aware of the water wasted by watering our lawns. Dig compost into your flowerbeds, plant native species, and mulch around plants, shrubs and trees to absorb water. Water wisely if you need to water plants and trees and water early in the day to prevent evaporation. Watering cans and soaker hoses waste the least and occasional, deep watering is better than frequent, light sprinkling. Also we need to be aware of needlessly washing our cars and the fact that this is a huge drain on our water supply. Using a running hose to wash your car can waste about 400 litres of water. Using a bucket with a sponge plus a trigger nozzle on the hose will save you about 300 of those litres. As we know water level is continuously decreasing, so we have to be careful in use.

Eco-system is also disturbed, if you not concentrate on the eco-life cycle process, which result in failure of conservation of energy, conservation of forest & environment, renewable energy sources mission.

The world is running out of water due to that fact that we are polluting, depleting, and diverting its finite freshwater supplies rapidly. Water conservation is something we all need to participate in. Water is not infinite and what we take for granted now may not be there for us in future generations.
