Fresh water is a finite and vulnerable resource, essential to sustain life, development and the environment. As water is critical to sustain life, effective management of water resources requires the development and protection of our natural ecosystems.
Wastage of fresh water poses a serious and growing threat to sustainable development and protection of the environment. Even if you live in an area with ample rainfall, conservation of water is important to maintain plentiful supplies during times of scarcity and drought. With the advent of water metering in Ireland, water conservation is set to become a hot topic in the coming months and years. There is great scope for water savings in agriculture, in industry and in domestic water supplies but the development of water conservation policies still remain in their infancy. |
