What is water ?Water is a transparent fluid which forms the world's streams, lakes, oceans and rain, and is the major constituent of the fluids of living things.

It’s :- Formula: H2O

Melting point: 0 °C Boiling point: 100 °C Molar mass: 18.01528 g/mol

Drinking Water• Access to drinking water means that the source is less than 1

km away from its place of use and that it is possible to reliably obtain at least 20 litres per member of a household per day.

• Each person needs 20-50 liters of safe freshwater a day for drinking, cooking and cleaning. More than one in six people worldwide - 894

million - don't have access to this amount of safe freshwater.

Hydrologic Cycle The hydrologic cycle describes the continuous movement of

water: Evaporation to the atmosphere Precipitation to the land Infiltration to groundwater Discharge to surface water

Changes in climate can alter the hydrologic cycle Temperature affects water vapor which affects precipitation

Water Levels: Great Lakes Average Great Lakes levels depends on the balance between

precipitation and evaporation

Why is water so important?• Essential for the prevention of disease, especially in

developing nationso Improve Sanitation

• To remain HEALTHY • Basic needs

Diseases Related to Water

Water-borne Diseases Diseases caused by ingestion of water contaminated by human

or animal excrement, which contain pathogenic microorganisms

Include cholera, typhoid, amoebic and bacillary dysentery and other diarrheal diseases

In addition, water-borne disease can be caused by the pollution of water with chemicals that have an adverse effect on health

Water-washed Diseases

Diseases caused by poor personal hygiene and skin and eye contact with contaminated water

These include scabies, trachoma, typhus, and other flea, lice and tick-borne diseases.

Water-based Diseases

Diseases caused by insect vectors, parasites found in intermediate organisms living in contaminated water

Includes Schistosomiasis , Dracunculiasis, dengue, filariasis, malaria, onchocerciasis, trypanosomiasis and yellow fever

The FutureEven if by the year 2015 the proportion of people who are

unable to reach or to afford safe drinking water is halved, between 34 and 76 million people, mostly children, will die from preventable water-borne diseases

By 2025, 800 million people will experience absolute water scarcity, andtwo-thirds of the world population couldbe under stress conditions.

1.1 billion people have no access to any type of improved drinking source of water.

Water Conservation Tips

Let your parents know about leaks in your house Turn off the faucet when brushing or shaving Take shorter showers Bring or use a reusable water bottle like a Nalgene instead of the

drinking fountain

Some Questions About Water, Health, and Justice

Over 5 million people, mostly children, die annually due to preventable

water-borne diseases.

WHY?

Conclusion we can conclude that healthy water contains important

role in a life of living being whether animals, humans or plants.

To remain healthy we need healthy water because without water we cant live, it is essential for living.

It is our duty to keep water clean and stop wasting precious thing.
