A collection of various perspectives on the conservation and management policies of water has been presented in this unique book. Water is an essential and basic human need for urban, industrial and agricultural usage. Though there is abundance in fresh water resources, its uneven distribution across the world has generated challenges for sustainable use of this resource. Water conservation refers to an efficient and optimal usage of water, and the protection of valuable water resources. This book lays emphasis on some commonly used tools and techniques like rainwater harvesting, water reuse and recycling, cooling water recycling, irrigation techniques like drip irrigation, agricultural management methods, groundwater management and water conservation incentives.
