The water mission has

many advantages: It conserves the quality of

water. It reduces water depletion. It ensures that every person

gets water. It helps to reduce water

pollution.

CONSERVATION OF WATER.

Rainwater, when allowed to replenish existing aquifers, helps increase the quality of groundwater.

Surface tanks can be used to store rainwater for reuse by residents.

Rain water harvesting is another way in which we can conserve water. When washing dishes by hand, don't let the water run. Run your washing machine and dishwasher only when they are

full. You can save up to 1,000 gallons a month!

SLOGANS ON WATER CONSERVATION The water saving device is you. Every drop of water wasted is, himself wasting one

second of his life. Let’s make every drop count. Water is the best of all things. Save water, it will save you later! Water, water everywhere but not a drop to drink When you conserve water, you conserve life!
