If you want to help keep our waters clean, there are many things you can do to help. You can prevent water pollution of nearby rivers and lakes as well as groundwater and drinking water by following some simple guidelines in your everyday life.
Conserve water by turning off the tap when running water is not necessary. This helps prevent water shortages and reduces the amount of contaminated water that needs treatment.
Be careful about what you throw down your sink or toilet. Don’t throw paints, oils or other forms of litter down the drain.
Use environmentally household products, such as washing powder, household cleaning agents and toiletries.
Take great care not to overuse pesticides and fertilisers. This will prevent runoffs of the material into nearby water sources.
By having more plants in your garden you are preventing fertiliser, pesticides and contaminated water from running off into nearby water sources.
Don’t throw litter into rivers, lakes or oceans. Help clean up any litter you see on beaches or in rivers and lakes, make sure it is safe to collect the litter and put it in a nearby dustbin.
September, 7, 2011, was a terrifying day for me. It was 11.30 pm on a Wednesday night in my home. I was alone because everyone in my family was slept. I was very hungry and went to the kitchen. Suddenly, I saw a big shadow outside the window. It was awesom. A few minutes later, the shadow was maving. After that, I ran into the room and locked the door. Finally, I fall asleep.
flood is an overflow of an expanse of water that submerges land. The EU Floods directive defines a flood as a temporary covering by water of land not normally covered by water. In the sense of "flowing water", the word may also be applied to the inflow of the tide. Flooding may result from the volume of water within a body of water, such as a river or lake, which overflows or breaks levees, with the result that some of the water escapes its usual boundaries. น้ำท่วมคือการขยายตัวของพื้นที่ของน้ำซึ่งทำให้พื้นดินจมลงใต้น้ำ น้ำท่วมในยุโรปเกิดขึ้นชั่วคราวโดยน้ำบนพื้นดินที่ไม่ปกติ ในความรู้สึก คำว่า"flowing water" คำนี้ควรใช้กับการไหลของน้ำ น้ำท่วมมีผลมาจากปริมาณน้ำภายในตัวน้ำ เช่น แม่น้ำหรือทะเลสาบที่ล้นเขื่อน ผลคือน้ำบางส่วนล้นออกมา
