Cassy, what do you think is the importance of water?
Well, water keeps us healthy, John. Drinking enough water makes us hydrated and helps to regulate our body temperature.
Water carries nutrients to all cells in our body and oxygen to our brain. Water can also keep our organs healthy and prevent fatigue.
Water is essential for every living thing, especially humans. They use water for drinking, cleaning, washing, cooking, and growing foods.
Flowing water creates energy that can be captured and turned into electricity called hydroelectric power or hydropower. We also use water for agriculture and industry.
Many people suffer from daily thirst and illness due to water scarcity. That is why water is very important. Without it, every living thing will not survive.
Indeed. Did you know that as of 2021, more than 3 million people in the Philippines rely on unsafe and unsustainable water sources?
Meanwhile, 7 million people lack access to improved sanitation.
Wow, water is really essential. We use it for almost everything.
To save water, we must fix leaks in toilets and sinks, use low-flow showerhead and faucet aerators, and do not overuse water; turn off the faucets when not in use.
The only way to avoid water shortage is to save water.
Well then, how can we prevent water shortage?
Another thing to consider while saving water is to monitor your water usage on your bill. Lastly, share your knowledge about preventing water shortage with your neighbors. Keep everyone educated.
Keep in mind that in order to conserve water, we also need discipline. We must give importance to water; let us not waste it. That is all, John.
Thank you for educating me, Cassy! I learned a lot. Until next time!
