Mar 22nd is recognized as the World Water Day by United Nations and this year's theme is "Coping with Water Scarcity: Challenge of the 21st Century". The experts have divided opinions about how deep the crisis is as of today, but then as UN report says there are tons of silent crises, millions of people deprived of the water they need to live and to sustain their livelihood.
In short, "Save Water"!!! Every drop is precious :)

Moi, you are so right about water being the "elixir of life". We can't live without it. It is important that we remember to conserve. Too many of us are profligate with our water usage.
hey, how much water was wasted for that shot?? :P
Moi,
I'm glad we did our part, however small, to remind people about Water Day. If only Americans would turn theirs lawn sprinklers off some minutes earlier, how much water would that save?
Hello, Moi!
This work is fantastic. Thank you
Hve a good weekend
annie : true!!!
the last adam : none!!! consciously atleast......it's the shot of sprinklers at school.
geraldo : I was glad to see that u did our part :). And it's not abt Americans : It's abt each one of us inhabiting the Earth.....whoever does not face water crisis takes water for granted!!! Tho'u r right abt "sprinklers".....i have seen sprinklers on, even during rains!!!
david : thank u and welcome here and yes, u too have a great weekend!! :)
Great shot.I like it a lot!Great job!
Yes water is the life blood for us all. Everyone -world wide- nees to do their part to preserve this precious comodity.

Water Day did seem very important to midia it seems, so it seems no one cares what may happen 30 years from now?
The pic-gravity makes it so beautiful . Not to take away any credits from 'Moi' :-)
thats such an apt title, no one knows that better than me :), its making my skin glow, hair grow thicker and keeping me healthy :), and such a surreal shot, it reminds me of the time we drove through a river and the water was hurled all around the windows in the very same manner.
hey ur a big bollywood fan!!
:)
amazing pic!!
Water is precious. Interesting shot!
Hey Moi,
great pic as always!
True....'AAb-e-Hayaat"
We need to respect it a little more than we usually do, and avoid wasting it.
Its a great shot, make me want to stand under the water sprinklers!
oopsy doopsy! hey moi, that was just a harmless speck of a comment...din mean it really! Anyways, thanks for clarifying! had a terrific weekend :)
Hmmm... have to say am a little in two minds on this one....
The problem is not one of insufficient resource (water), but of inadequate distribution. In such a scenario, conservation is usually not of much use.
To illustrate my point, shutting the sprinlers off a few minutes earlier, is not going to provide the water in the water starved in india. That water will just go into the ocean through the rivers. So, how does that help in anyway?
But at the same time, something like water-harvesting in the city of chennai, obviously has a huge benefit, as it replenishes the underground water table, and makes available more water for agriculture in and around chennai.
Hope you catch my drift as to why I am in two minds.... but I guess conserving water can't hurt at the minimum... :)
hey pic is nnice.. n thanks for the info abt water day.. i tought it was only my sisters b'day ;)
Great!
Ciao!
