| Summary: | Renewability and exhaustiveness are two main characteristics of available fresh water resources. Examples of inadequate use of available water resources are numerous. This undermines the sustainability of the entire ecosystem. Namely, using clean water as a waste is uncontrolled process in most countries, while water in some parts of the world, such as Sub-Saharan Africa and parts of southern Asia, is very rare or dried up. Increasing levels of clean water pollution require special attention. Thus, human activity presents the most obvious indicator of violation of available resources. Such activities could trigger numerous unwanted complications of population health in some underdeveloped and developing countries. Increasing world population emphasizes the clean water use for human activities. Therefore, intensive modifications in the use of fresh water and conservation of aquatic ecosystems are necessary. Efforts of all countries should be conservation of quantity, quality and availability of clean water in sense of plant and animal life development. Also, water resources productivity and their effective utilization are very important for agriculture production. Implementation of various measures and policies will encourage better water supply in critical areas and more effective use of available water resources in areas with sufficient amount of clean water. |
