Water Resources, Management and Human Beings: An Integrative Review
Abstract
On earth all life is critically dependent upon water – the origin and evolution of life became possible on earth because of the presence of liquid water. Animals and plants consist mostly of water. Water is only one of the several parameters that have a bearing on the industrial and agricultural productivity of a country. The quality of life of a community or family is closely linked to the quality and quantity of water available for drinking, cooking, washing, bathing, sanitation of a country. Since ancient times, man has settled along the rivers water, has moved along the river to unknown parts, and has eaten the fish caught in the rivers. This review research paper focuses on the managing the multiple uses and reuses of the natural resources optimally, sustainably through an understanding of the linkages and dynamics of interaction involving water. The attempt made by the community to protect the natural resources play important role for the future, we have to preserve natural resources and provide a pollution free environment which is not only concern with only policy makers, legislatures or the Judiciary. This work adopts an integrated socio-economic approach for water resources management.
