The first realization of the problem originated about three decades ago when the first signs of scarcity became obvious.The main reasons for this are the increase of population and the use of water per capita as well as the profligacy and mismanagement of the world resourses.

Water contains the essence of life and its shortage should be regarded as one of the most serious environmental problems that affect every aspect of our lives. Governments should take action for the conservation of water and sustainability. Moreover, developed countries should inform their citizens that this isn’t a remote problem or a problem of certain countries but a real issue that should be dealt with innovative ideas and stricter regulations in national legislation.

Still protecting the available water should be of everybody’s concern and each should learn what to do so as not to waste water in vain because our right to use water comes with responsibilities to preserve and protect. There should also be an improvement in the efficiency of present uses domestic, agricultural and industrial. Countries should focus on taking measures that will promote the awareness of people and the production of alternative sources for main areas that water still is the first fundamental derivative.

Finally, I believe that we should all start treating water as a resource and not as a nuisance.
