Talk about the importance of water
Since the beginning of time, water has continued to be an important thing to all living
things. Without water nothing could live. We may change our food according to the
climate of a place but we may find no substitute for water. Man has always looked for
pure fresh water to slake his thirst.
Water not only quenches our thirst but it is also a source of food to us. From the sea we
catch large quantities of fish and other creatures. We use water to irrigate our lands to
produce crops. Many parts of the world are dry and barren because there is no water
there. People in such places lead a very hard life. Even the plants and animals find it a
real struggle to survive. They can obtain water only by some means of ingenuity. Water
also helps to increase the fertility of the land in several parts of the world. The alluvium
that is brought down by rivers is very fertile. Even electricity, which has changed our lives
completely, is produced by water-power in many countries.
Further, water is an important means of communication. We use waterways to carry our
goods or trade. Water transport is cheaper than land transport and in many remote
regions, rivers are the only means of communication. In many countries rivers are used
to bring down timber from the hilly regions to the lower regions where the timber mills
are. In this way much money is saved.
It is true, however, that water has also caused much destruction to life and property
throughout human history. Heavy rainfall, swollen rivers and the angry waves of the sea
have killed thousands of people and destroyed homes and crops. Yet, water is
indispensable to life, and people everywhere are trying their best to bring water to places
where it is scarce, to control its flow in times of floods and to make greater use of it.
