________________ identify and eliminate waste. It should reach each and every citizen of the nation, even through mass media. vi) Campaigns A total ban on the use of water as cooling medium without having a closed circulating system, should be imposed in Industry Campaigns in schools and towns have been started to spread this message of seriousness to each and every human being in the world. Many projects at micro-level have been started for conservation of water. 3) Conservation of Water: The most important aspect of water conservation is the development of right attitude towards water. That means, i) To give due respect to this commodity and consider it precious. ii) To limit one's daily requirement and try to reduce it to a bare minimum. iii) To put conscious efforts to conserve it for our children. When we look at a few old philosophies of the world, we are wonder struck to find how all these messages are postulated in these old religions. They preached to their followers to practice and follow all the above noted three principles. Human race did not care about these aspects of religions in the recent past and hence landed up into this precarious situation. Like many other countries, India has also embraced an economic growth model based on increasing consumption, which is neither sustainable from the environmental perspective nor inclusive in ensuring that the economic benefits are shared equitably. To prevent further degradation of the environment, participatory environmental management should be introduced extensively. So that everyone concerned feels responsible or accountable. We need a paradigm shift in our total approach. To present development, environment and social justice as conflicting issues is not only disastrous for human race but also indicative of our short term greed and apathy. Unless this truth is imbibed in the policies of all governments, all our attempts to protect and conserve water and environment are bound to fail in the long run.
