It is impossible for humans to survive and sustain without water. Water is used in our daily life for cleaning, drinking, washing clothes, and growing food. Water is also used for generating electricity, manufacturing goods. Rivers, seas, and oceans help in transportation of goods. Majority of world’s trade happens through the oceans on a daily basis. Water plays a crucial role in the formation of weather and climate. From the perspective of the human body, water allows the body to absorb and assimilate minerals, vitamins, amino acids, glucose and other substances. Water acts as a lubricant for joints and muscles. Water helps to regulate body temperature. Take into consideration any ancient civilization like Mesopotamia or Indus Valley Civilization, all of them were built close to rivers, even Rome was built along the banks of river Tigris. Even the current major cities like London, Paris, Tokyo, Shanghai, New York, Chicago etc were developed close to major rivers. Even Singapore is prosperous as it is close to water sources. The use of water for transportation of materials through rivers and canals as well as the international shipping lanes is an important part of the world economy.
