Answer 1

The oceans contain 97 percent of the world's water, which is too salty for drinking, crop cultivation, and most industrial uses (except cooling).
Freshwater accounts for $3\%$ of the world's water supply.
2.5 percent of the world's freshwater is inaccessible because it is locked up in glaciers, polar ice caps, the atmosphere, and soil; it is heavily polluted; or it is too deep under the earth's surface to be processed at an acceptable rate.
Aquifers account for 0.5 percent of the world's water.

Complete answer:
a) The principles Rahul advocated are those of environmental importance. Every individual's primary role is to conserve resources in the world. To prevent the environment from being abused, everyone should share these values.
b) The government should specifically ban the discharge of any form of waste into bodies of water.
c) Rahul battled to avoid river water contamination and to ensure that water is not contaminated by industrial waste.

Note:
Pollution has a major effect on human health, the atmosphere, and even the functioning of some of the Earth's processes, such as the climate. Pollution affects every part of the globe. It has an effect on our health because of the food we consume, the water we drink, and the air we breathe.
A pollution-free earth is by far the best protection for current and future generations of humans and habitats. Additional activities have the potential to improve health, well-being, and the economy.
