The global water crisis is expected to worsen if urgent action is not taken in making sustainable amends. This applies to Pakistan as the entire country suffers massively from poor water sanitation. Waterborne diseases are rising exponentially attributed to rise in microbial infestations, trace elements and drug toxicity in many water bodies of Pakistan. Treatment and prevention strategies must be implemented through national authorities and at the individual level. Awareness on use of clean water must be emphasized and proper administration on water management policies should be implemented. Immediate and active sustainability for water resources can ensure a safer future for Pakistan.
如果不采取紧急行动进行可持续补救，全球水危机预计将恶化。这适用于巴基斯坦，因为整个国家都深受恶劣的水卫生条件之苦。由于巴基斯坦许多水体中微生物滋生、微量元素和药物毒性增加，水传播疾病呈指数级上升。必须通过国家当局和个人层面实施治疗和预防策略。必须强调使用清洁水的意识，并应实施对水资源管理政策的适当管理。水资源的立即和积极可持续性可为巴基斯坦确保一个更安全的未来。
