Abstract

The fact that the United Nations has realized the importance of safe drinking water as SDG6 imposes a great responsibility on man to urgently realize the ways and means of conserving water in its natural reserves in pristine form. The chapter describes the geography and geology of sources of water emphasizing their role in the preservation of water in nature. It also suggests ways and means of reducing the ‘water footprint' so that people participate in choosing optimal and judicious patterns for using water.
