“A liquid of life…”
Is a necessity ensuring the supply of clean water, when
we talk about water the first thing that we think is in water as a fundamental
element for humans and all living beings on Earth. Just thinking about its uses
that benefits us, we realize that we aren’t capable to live without it. That's
the reason of why preserving and ensuring water it’s an urgent matter.
According to VidaNaturalia (n.d), the water is an essential substance to our body because it
can transport nutrients to the cells, dilute all body fluids, regulate body
temperature, metabolize food, cleanse the body and expel impurities or
residues, etc. If we decrease the needed consume of this substance, we are
certain that it can cause us several problems in our body like the dehydration.
We have to mitigate the necessity of our body to drink water depending on different
circumstances like the age, sex, exercise that we practice and the outside
temperature. Although our body asks us different amounts of water to satisfy
our own needs, we all require clean water.
Even if we have plenty of food, only healthy conditions
of living and access to clean water help to the proper alimentation of people.
The reason of this is because we can't ingest food that has not been properly
cleaned before because it can cause us a serious illness. The rural area is
always the most affected because only people with extreme poverty live there.
For example, Aburto and Ordoñez (2015), explained that in Nicaragua two thirds
of the population in the Autonomous Regions of the Caribbean consumes dirty
river water, there are major problems of malnutrition, low educational levels,
poor sanitary conditions and no access to potable water, this unfortunately
encourage bad condition of living that precludes the development of the
country. Unless the governments provide clean water to the neediest population,
people won’t have a better quality of life.
On the other hand, pollution and degradation of
oceans, lakes, aquifers, rivers, waterholes and other water resources which are
used to deposit waste can also contribute to infectious diseases and not only
that, it can affect the entire biosphere. It`s well known that more developed
countries have more problems with pollution than less developed, the same thing
occurs with larger cities and smaller cities and also rural areas; according to
Goel (n.d), this happens because of
the population, the reason of that is the lifestyle and industrialization of
more developed countries that consumes resources and energy. In conclusion we
all have to bring solutions, we have to make a conscious population about the
needs of clean water providing laws that benefit environment, all this with
help of the government, making projects that raise awareness to people and
adopting a greener lifestyle, that way we can ensure clean
water.
