“Water has no taste, no color, no odor; it cannot be defined, art relished while ever mysterious. Not necessary to life, but rather life itself. It fills us with a gratification that exceeds the delight of the senses. “

ANTOINE DE SAINT- EXUPERY

“We never know the worth of water till the well is dry. ”

The Earth is our home. We must take care of it for the next generations. Shortage of supplies of clean water is one of the biggest problems all over the world.

There are a lot of rivers, lakes, and springs in our country. They give life to many species of plants, animals, birds and many other living things. It’s a real disaster when the rivers are polluted. Large cities are letting different wastes flow into the water. Hunters kill river animals and fish. We must take care of our water resources. People will have to change the habits in order to survive in the modern world.

Shestakova Dasha

3% of Earth's water is fresh. Only 1% is usable (It is not frozen in ice caps or glaciers).

Fresh water is necessary for life. People, animals and birds, plants need fresh water.

But fresh water must be healthy. People drank from the rivers 100 years ago, but we can’t do it now. The rivers are polluted now.

We like to drink clean water. Mineral water is good for health and nice to drink. But plastic bottles are a real problem. They can make a real disaster.

There are a lot of trees, bushes, grass and flowers near the rivers and lakes. Do not pollute the banks of the river! Do not cut down the trees! Do not make fire!

The research on the usage of fresh water in our village.

Churilin Konstantin

Our village use about 232 m3 of water during a year. 70% of villagers do not think about the amount of water they use during a day. 30% of villagers follow the water saving. It is necessary to change the attitude to using the water.

Rules for all family members for saving and water

• Use the washing machine at full capacity;•Use shower rather the bathtub;• Close the tap when you are brushing your teeth;• Keep the taps and the toilet bowl water in good working – a dripping tap water ensures you the wash water for a whole month.
