Our smooth functioning lives turn into a nightmare, whenever there is an electricity cut or water shortage. Both of these are important points not only for a comfortable life but also for our survival. Regular activities like drinking, bathing, cooking, etc. require both water and energy. Now imagine the situation when the availability of both these resources – water and electricity is in shortage, it can lead to war. It is also assumed that the next world war could be due to water. Hence it is an urgent need for us to be aware and considerate about the conservation of water and other resources. We owe these resources to our future generations as we have inherited them from our ancestors.

The increasing population has become a burden on natural resources.
Humans have blindly exploited natural resources for their own never-ending desires and greed. A continuous rise in population density triggers a scarcity of limited resources. Such exploitation might result in the non-availability of natural resources in the future. We need to conserve water because by conserving water, we not only save water but also save energy because to make water fit for drinking and other uses, a lot of electrical energy is needed to filter, heat, and pump the water to homes. Producing electricity itself requires a lot of nonrenewable fuels and resources. Thus saving water and electricity goes hand in hand.
The organization that pulls out all the stops to conserve natural resources.
Around the world, a lot of conferences, seminars, meetings, etc. are held at national and international levels regarding the conservation of natural resources. But there is a lot of difference in protocols sanctioned and implemented. There are a lot of organizations working to make people aware of water conservation.
Dera Sacha Sauda is an organization that pulls out all the stops when it comes to saving the planet. The organization under the pious guidance of head, Saint Dr. Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh Ji Insan has put some very impressive steps forward. These actions have made millions aware of the wise utilization of water and energy.
The organization has led various initiatives towards environmental protection one of which is towards conserving water and energy. So let us know more about this initiative.
Some quality tips to save water in in day to day life.
Saint Dr. Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh Ji Insan in his holy congregations, has guided millions of people towards water conservation. Guruji launched various campaigns involving huge masses and various useful projects. Saint Dr. MSG has given various tips that prove very effective as the devotees follow them as holy orders in their routine lives.
Dera Sacha Sauda believes in implementation and actions rather than long debates and lectures.
Here are the tips by Guruji to save water.
Reuse the Water After Bath
We waste a lot of water while taking showers or taking baths. Saint Dr. MSG has suggested a way to reuse this water and is very economical and beneficial.
- Dig a pit where water from the bathroom is to be drained.
- Fill this pit with some concrete, stones, then make a layer of gravel within it and at last spread a layer of sand.
- Finally a place is prepared to collect water within it.
- Use filters under drainage in the bathroom so that the water gets filtered when it goes through it.
- This filtered water can be used surely in your kitchen garden.
Use cups/containers to brush teeth
While we brush our teeth, Most of us keep the tap open. Ultimately, we waste a lot of water in seconds. Collectively, many liters of water are wasted in the mornings. Saint Dr. MSG awakens masses and urges them to use a mug while instead of directly using water from the tap.
Millions of people have pledged to conserve water.
Guruji has made millions of people to pledge that they will do their every bit to conserve water. They will not waste it unnecessarily. Volunteers have taken pledge and they also make other people aware of the same.
A unique irrigation system installed by His holiness.
Although the drip system in farming is a popular and conservative technique. But Saint Dr. MSG in Dera Sacha Sauda has developed a unique water conservation method under which rainwater is collected in a tank. From this tank, a unique drip system is installed and fields are irrigated. This wonderful system can conserve quintals of water.
Let’s pledge to plant trees as much as possible.
Dera Sacha Sauda volunteers, inspired by Saint Dr. MSG plant millions of trees in a year. Under the initiative nature campaign, volunteers plant trees whenever possible and whenever they find an opportunity. Trees prevent surface run-off of water, help in precipitation, and also prevent all types of pollution. Dera volunteers promote reforestation, contributing their bit towards saving the Earth.
Cut off the use of energy
– Unplug the electrical appliances when not in use specially mobile charger which many times is left in plug.
– Use energy saving devices wherever possible.
Promoting the use of renewable sources of energy.
Installation of Solar panel
Saint Dr. MSG being a nature lover, emphasizes on using renewable source of energy such as solar energy. Solar panels have been installed in the large area on the sheds of Dera Sacha Sauda. These solar panels save a lot of water and energy required to produce electricity.

Biogas plant in Dera Sacha Sauda
Biogas is an eco-friendly source of energy. Set up of biogas plants in urban and rural areas reduces pollution and is also sustainable.
A huge biogas Plant is built on the premises of Dera Sacha Sauda. Human and animal waste is collected in a storage which is then utilized to produce Gas, that is used to produce electricity. Guruji in his movie, Jattu Engineer has given a message about the benefits of Biogas plants in rural and urban areas.

Conclusion
Let us follow the above tips and also contribute towards saving water and energy.
