Water, a precious resource, holds immense significance for all forms of life. While there is an abundance of water to cater to the current population and even a projected population of 9 billion, its distribution exhibits significant spatial and temporal variations. This leads to the formation of water-rich and water-poor countries, as well as water-related conflicts and the prevalence of unsafe drinking water, a significant killer identified by the World Health Organization (WHO).
Water for Life: Drinking Water, Health, Food, Energy Nexus delves into these critical issues, shedding light on the multifaceted uses and immense importance of water in our daily lives. It explores water resources, the chemistry of water, drinking water, and the interconnected relationships between water and health, food, irrigation, soil, energy, transportation, industry, recreation, disasters, and conflicts. The book is designed to be accessible and understandable, incorporating technical elements to cater to readers with varying backgrounds. It serves as an excellent supplementary text for specialized study in civil engineering, geography, and social sciences, guiding individuals toward a comprehensive understanding of environmentally sustainable water management for the well-being of all human and other biotic lives.
