Fresh water has always been a limited resource in some parts of the world. Today, however, growing worldwide demand has made this a global problem. What are the causes of the increased demand, and what measures could governments and individuals take to respond to this problem?

Our planet and the natural resources like air,

water

, soil and fossil fuels available on it are valuable gifts to us which need to be preserved as these are non-renewable. The heightened demand for

water

has become a global issue in

this

age and day as it has always been a finite resource.

This

come up with the idea of rainwater harvesting and make separate arrangements for the supply of drinking

and

for consumption in other work.

For example

, fresh

should be supplied for drinking

whereas

water

for agricultural use should be supplied separately. Consumers are equally responsible for bringing the regulations into force because it can be done only with the collaborative efforts of both officials and individuals.

To sum up

, the lack of enough

water

supply to face a never-ending demand is now a worldwide concern. Actions must be taken to save every single drop of

water

on a personal basis but most importantly as a community. If governments do not address

this

problem immediately, consequences could be devastating for the whole of humanity.
