One fact the most of us neglect that the sources of fresh water are limited and if not used prudently the race will be in crises. Though there are ways in which water can be purified but if water is wasted with the same rate they will be like lilyputs in front of the giant population. It is every ones responsibility to save water. By showing fingers to other hat he or she is responsible for wasting water won't solve the problem. We collectively need to fight the problem. It is rightly said the charity begins form home thus one should mandatoryly develop a few personal habits to save water.
