What Is The Importance Of Water Conservation In Singapore?
Water is essential to all living things. We can live for days without food, but not without water. About three-quarters of the earth is made up of water but most of it is sea water, which has too much salt in it to be drinkable. For sea water to become drinkable, it needs to be treated by an expensive process to remove the salt and other impurities. This process is called desalination. Singapore’s water supply comes from local sources as well as from Johor. Even this fresh water has to be properly treated before it is safe to drink.
