Water Conservation Water conservation is important because we depend on it. So many of our daily activities‚ like bathing or flushing the toilet‚ require fresh water. Our body even needs water to function correctly. Seventy-one percent of the Earth’s surface is made up of water. Ninety-eight percent of it all is salt water‚ leaving only two percent as fresh water. More than half of the fresh water is permanently frozen in glaciers or is in the form of snow. That leaves just a tiny

due to human activities and the reason for conservation of biodiversity will be discussed in details with respect to its aesthetic value‚ medicinal importance and its ecological value. The concept of biodiversity is important in building awareness‚ knowledge‚ information‚ ethics‚ and other complex mixture of agriculture‚ protected areas‚ etc. Figure 1 shows how these fit into the society together to achieve a common objective which is the conservation of biodiversity‚ sustainable use of biological

It can begin simply by turning off a light switch as someone leaves a room or unplugging a device when not in use. From these small acts‚ the beginning seeds of energy conservation can be sown. Energy conservation has become one of the most hotly debated subjects in the world. Old power plants are struggling to keep up‚ sometimes causing power shortages or “brown outs”‚ and new power plants are being built‚ but most of the new plants still use the same technology as their predecessors. Some

turned up no evidence of surviving Black Rhinos. The western black Rhino was once widespread across the savannas of central-west Africa but it has decreased due to hunting in the early 20th century. The population rose again in the 1930s due to conservation efforts‚ but was to no avail as these slipped away. The population was in the hundreds by 1980 and decreased to 10 by 2000. This sub-species of Rhino becomes the second declared extinct this year. Last month the Vietnamese Rhino‚ a subspecies

ow‚ what do mean by this? This means that conservation of a unit of energy is cheaper and environmentally more desirable than to generate an additional unit. For‚ it is estimated that generation of every additional kilowatt for one hour of energy requires an investment of Rs. 7‚000 to 12‚000 in the form of new energy generation equipments. Excessive utilization of coal and oil for generation of electricity leads to the multiple problems of acid rain‚ and rising carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere

Now that it is for sure that we need to make conscience and don’t spend too much water on things‚ the next essay will be written. In some parts of Mexico‚ water has been exploded to its maximum. In places where people have a lot of money‚ more water is used for things. For example‚ in Mexico DF‚ we use 270 L per day‚ this means
