A brief exposure towards the present scenario of water in the world says that out of 100% water available, just 1% water could be used for day to day purposes out of which about 90% of the water tends to be polluted in nature. If we consider a scenario of a developing country like India where most of the food production is held via the source of agriculture, it becomes quite the requirement of using fertilizers and pesticides for efficient and large-scale production but then again using all this also tend to serve as a prime cause for pollution to all sorts of water resources present around the area in form of drainage surfaces, canals, and other irrigational facilities. The causes towards polluting water is like causing eutrophication, reduction on BOD, disturbing the odor and taste of water, increasing microbiological activities in water also disturbing the Ph levels of water and making the water hard therefore making the water insecure for day to day usage. Certain ways of making the water secure is reduction of all the parameters stated above but then the causes are so very wide spread and also to meet extreme food demands it has almost become impossible to reach out to close 100% purification rates. Reaching out to such problems it is quite obvious that with such doses of pollution it may happen that people may not be able to survive due to lack of purified water which isn’t feasible!!
