Worth Noting:
- I can’t understand something. Knowing that we cannot live without water, why waste it again?! We pass by with indifference when we see open faucets on the streets. If we had understood the plight of people in some corner of the world who need a sip of water, we would never have wasted water.
- We can’t even imagine what a sip of water can do. That one sip of water can give strength to a sick patient, bring back to life a person lying on the death bed. Although 70 percent of the Earth’s surface is covered by water, only 1 percent of that water is drinkable.
You must have heard the phrase “water is the source of life” a lot. Indeed, it is difficult to imagine life without water. Before, when our grandfathers and grandmothers were children, their faces were red and they ate the bread that had just been taken out of the oven in streams of clear water. So, now? We rarely or never face such a situation. The reason for this is that we are having a negative impact on the environment.
Currently, children cannot even wash their hands, let alone eat and drink. After all, the canal water is being polluted. Even waste is being dumped.

Nowadays, it is also decreasing. The real proof of this is the drying up of the Aral Sea. The Aral Sea is the largest closed lake in Central Asia. Before its construction, it is the 4th largest lake after Lake Superior in North America, Lake Victoria in Africa and the Caspian Sea.
The reasons for the drying up of the Aral Sea are some environmental problems. The sharp reduction of sea water has had negative effects not only on Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan, but also on the whole of Central Asia. It is no exaggeration to say that this doubles our responsibility for water conservation.
A person can live up to 3 months without food. Without water, he can live only 3-4 days. Even if 10 percent of the water in the human body is lost, he will die. We know that the drinking water that we use in our homes flows from the mountains through the melting of the snow and reaches the areas where we live. When the winter season comes, there is more precipitation.
But in recent years, global warming has been observed, which means that there is less precipitation in the winter season. When it comes to global warming, everyone has their own opinion. Global warming does not mean that the weather is getting warmer every year. This implies many years of changes. That is, if we look at 10 years ago 20-25 years ago, it is relatively warmer now. On the other hand, precipitation is less, and snow falls relatively less in the mountains. This causes all kinds of droughts and similar problems.
Well, you must have understood the true meaning of the above sentence “Each drop of water is worth gold”. We know that gold is very valuable. The reason why we equate a drop of water to gold is that if we don’t conserve water, water will decrease gradually and it is possible that a drop of water will become more expensive than gold.
Based on the above considerations, we should increase our attention to water. We should start our efforts to use it sparingly today, right now.
