Q3. Long questions (Attempt any 2 of 3 · 2 × 4 = 8)

  1. Clean water is a fundamental resource that supports human health environmental sustainability and economic development Despite its importance many regions still face challenges in accessing clean water due to scarcity contamination and inadequate infrastructure

  2. Water is fundamental to all form of life, as it constitutes about 60% of the human body and plays a crucial role in maintaining various bodily functions. Water covers roughly 70 percent of our planet. Almost everything we do involves the use of water, and yet, only 3% of the earth's water is fresh water; and only one third of the freshwater is readily available for use. This small fraction supports all life on land. We rely on clean water to survive, but patterns of climate and human activity are threatening our clean resources of water.

  3. Despite the importance, access to clean water is not universal. Many regions, particularly in developing countries, face challenges related to water scarcity and contamination. Factors such as population growth, climate change, and pollution exacerbate these issues. In the arid and semi-arid-regions, water sources are often limited, making it difficult to meet the needs of the growing populations. Climate change can alter precipitation patterns, leading to droughts and reducing the availability of freshwater resources.
