Abstract

Water is life for all the living organisms which is present on earth. Water is needed to ensure food security, feed livestock, and take up industrial production and to conserve the environment. Water scarcity involves water stress, water shortage or deficits, and water crisis. This may be due to both nature and humans. Main factors that contribute to this issue include poor management of resources, lack of government attention, awareness and anthropogenic waste. The increased value of solid wastes and other hazardous waste in water systems such as rivers, ponds, lakes and canals also heavily pollute the water quality. Government has to take stringent steps for the protection of natural resources because human being is dependent on environment for every basic needs and life is beyond imagination without natural resource like water.
印度水资源短缺:对水资源可持续管理的威胁
水是地球上所有生物的生命。确保粮食安全、喂养牲畜、进行工业生产和保护环境都需要水。水资源短缺包括水资源压力、水资源短缺或短缺以及水危机。这可能是自然和人为的原因。造成这一问题的主要因素包括资源管理不善、政府缺乏关注和意识以及人为浪费。河流、池塘、湖泊和运河等水系统中固体废物和其他危险废物的价值增加也严重污染了水质。政府必须采取严格的措施来保护自然资源,因为人类的每一个基本需求都依赖于环境,没有水这样的自然资源,生活是无法想象的。
