I am in a company deeply connected with water, so in order to celebrate World Water Day, we conducted an online quiz for all our employees. There were 25 selected questions which they had to answer. This quiz competition was open to all employees and was available only for one day, i.e., 22nd March.
Attached herewith is a file that contains more than 25 questions. This was my basic homework for the question paper, out of which we selected 25 questions for the day.
Hope you all would like it and, if necessary, incorporate something like this in your circle as well, if the work culture and environment permit.
Did You Know?
Avoiding the wastage of water directly by sealing leakages and being more conscious during consumption is not the only way to conserve water. Avoiding the wastage of everything results in water saving. Apparently, when we think of water usage, we usually think of only the water we use from our taps. This is not the fact. The fact is that all the things we use every day need water to create them, including our clothing, furniture, building materials, and just about everything else we use. There is absolutely no industry in this world that does not utilize water for its business purposes.
Did you know that by avoiding the wastage of food, we can also conserve water? How? It takes 2400 liters of water to create a hamburger. The water used in creating the hamburger includes water to grow the food the cow eats, water that the cow drinks, water for processing the meat, and also water for cleaning the cow. Similarly, it takes 2000 liters to create a t-shirt, 32 liters of water to create a microchip, and 140 liters to create a cup of coffee. So remember, every time you leave your cup of coffee half consumed, you waste around 70 liters of water. So put on your thinking caps and, if possible, come up with more innovative and effective ways to save water.
We usually take a lot of resolutions during the new year. This is the season of the Hindu New Year, with Gudi Padwa, Ugadi, and Cheti Chand just gone, and Poila Boishakh, Baishakhi nearing. Let us decide for ourselves a different kind of resolution for this new year.
What is that one thing that you will do (and continue doing forever) as your contribution towards Water Conservation?
Thanks & Regards,
