Freshwater makes up only 2.5% of the total amount of water on the planet. What does this mean to us in terms of conservation and pollution?

The water resource is not limitless and by polluting and handling it badly we waste it. These actions can result in freshwater running out, which is a serious threat for the people in the future. Conservation of the water means the resource is handled better, the fresh water is not polluted and that sustainable actions are taken to preserve fresh water as much as we can.

Explanation:

From the total amount of water that exists on the world (70% of the planet), only 2.5 is freshwater that can be consumed, while only 1% is easily accessible. This means water is a limited resource that might not exist infinitely and there might be a time when we run out of it.

While the cycle of water helps the resource, human-made pollution and contamination of the resource are what make it unsuitable for human consumption. The littering, fracking, discharges are all the actions that change the water and make it polluted. This water is therefore not good for drinking and using anymore unless it is cleared, which is a much more complicated and costly process than simply taking care of the resource. In cases when people do consume polluted water, it can result in health hazards and illnesses.

Conservation of the water is the saving of the resource, taking care of its freshness, and making sure it stays fresh. The various methods of sustainable living and using resources can help us ensure they don’t run out and that there is enough for future generations. If we make sure people, companies and corporations take care of how they handle the water, there is a chance the 2.5% of the water we have on our disposable will last longer and will be used smarter.
