Water is one of the most basic of all needs - we cannot live for more than a few days without it. And yet, most people take water for granted. We waste water needlessly and don't realize that clean water is a very limited resource. More than 1 billion people around the world have no access to safe, clean drinking water, and over 2.5 billion do not have adequate sanitation service. Over 2 million people die each year because of unsafe water - and most of them are children!

Robert Alan Aurthur

I can never waste water. If I cannot drink it I will use it to water the plants and I will never waste food. If it is inedible it goes on the compost heap.

Vera Lynn

Water is our most precious resource, but we waste it, just as we waste other resources, including oil and gas.

David Suzuki

The irony here is we're looking for water and we're looking out for water. Without it you die, and with too much of it you die.

Cody Lundin

I'm a girl who always looks at toilets and thinks Wow, how do we waste that much water when there are people who don't even have water?

Alysia Reiner

Some of us don't respect water. We waste it and pour it out. But a lot of disastrous stuff involves water. Tsunamis. Hurricanes.

Gza

I like that Brita makes tap water taste good, so you don't need to spend money or waste plastic with bottled water.

Stephen Curry

If you were to do it again, you'd probably do some things differently. But the decision is right to have a single entity manage the water and the waste water for a country.

Enda Kenny

Our houses, shops, and factories waste gigantic amounts of energy, often in the form of excess heat. How do we slash this waste? The answer is fairly simple: with a smart thermal water grid.

Jens Martin Skibsted

The wisdom or the essence of Guru Tattwa is a balance. Like when you maintain a plant, if you do not give it water it will die. If you give it too much water, it will die. So the wisdom lies in understanding how much water should be given to the plant, so that it comes up at its best. Now this wisdom has to be achieved through your vibratory awareness.

Nirmala Srivastava

This is the bravo’s dance, the water dance, swift and sudden. All men are made of water, do you know this? When you pierce them, the water leaks out and they die.

George R. R. Martin

The wave does not need to die to become water. She is already water.

Nhat Hanh

What we can do as landscape architects is look at how we can use materials to the best advantage, and our resources like water. Water is so precious that we can't waste it, we have to use it in small amounts, and we have to use it effectively.

Pamela Palmer

We must treat water as if it were the most precious thing in the world, the most valuable natural resource. Be economical with water! Don't waste it! We still have time to do something about this problem before it is too late.

Mikhail Gorbachev

Water conservation goes hand in hand with education. Teaching people that if you literally run the water while you brush your teeth - we go through 602 million gallons a day of waste in the United States because people are used to hearing the water run while they brush their teeth.

Ian Somerhalder

We are wasting our water mostly by putting waste into it. One cubic meter of wastewater can pollute ten cubic meters of water. Discharging wastewater into oceans turns freshwater into the less useful salty stuff, and desalination is expensive.
