Water Pollution and Its Effects on the Environment Water is probably the most important resource we as people have. Humans can survive without food for several weeks‚ but without water we would die in less than a week. On a slightly less dramatic note‚ millions of liters of water are needed every day worldwide for washing‚ irrigating crops‚ and cooling industrial processes‚ not to mention leisure industries such as swimming pools and water-sports centers. Despite our dependence on water‚ we use
