Water is the greatest asset we have, yet we see its future threatened by the rise in temperature on our planet Earth and also by the contamination it has been suffering. With the climate changes that have been occurring for many years, the quality of water has already been damaged and its quantity as well, representing a huge loss to our survival and also that of our planet. The decrease in water generates a direct impact on the many species of life that exist on our planet Earth, which depend on this resource in order to survive.
Our flora is also affected by water pollution, as it needs water for its photosynthesis process to produce food and oxygen. Water plays a key role in our survival and in the thermal balance of our planet. If water continues to suffer implications caused by human action, there will be major humanitarian crises all over the planet, leading to disease, malnutrition, shortages causing a lot of hunger and also territorial wars causing a lot of conflict and destruction. Droughts are also another extreme factor that has been happening, caused by a lack of rain for a while, causing a very negative impact on our environment, on crops, and on the quality of life of animals and the population.
A set of actions is needed in order to contribute to the preservation of our planet's water resources, where we will use it responsibly and also contribute to the preservation of natural resources. We see a devastating scenario if we don't change our actions. So we must take actions that contribute to the survival of our planet so that we have a positive quality of life for all its inhabitants. It is undeniable that we must have conscious management of our water resources so that we can guarantee the preservation of the planet and its species and also a sustainable future for future generations.
There is no magic formula, but if we are all aware of the importance of water on our planet, we will certainly make better use of it and be grateful for its existence.
