ACTIVITIES ON WORLD WATER DAY 2013

Dear All

In continuation to the earlier posting made on the WWD 2013, had several awareness cum advocacy programmes with various groups. The highlights are as follows:

1. The Facts about the Availability, Accessibility and Affordability (3As) on WATER / BLUE DIAMOND,
2. Possible ways of pollution to the water both surface and groundwater which are mostly man made,
3. The alarming situation of the water crises and its impact on the production,
4. The deteriorated quality of life of the people,   
5. Environmental degradation,
6. Finally stops the development and severe vulnerabilities with hazards & disasters.

.... have been discussed with professionals, NGOs, Community Welfare Societies and others. 

After understanding the water crises and its SWOT, the group discussed about the need of  moving towards effective water saving and water conservation measures.

Some of the measures discussed and to be followed were as follows:

• Save the use of water in the house and other places,
• Conserve the rainwater at individual and community level,
• Grow plants and develop greenery, and
• Disseminate the information to others to follow.  

We had a group of around 25 people who are committed for the cause of saving the WATER. 

Looking forward to make follow ups so that the process of water saving & conservation can be made as a process throughout 365 days. 

All the best.
