Our Earth is often referred to as "the blue planet" due to its vast oceans and water bodies that cover about 71% of its surface. This abundance of water is what makes Earth unique in our solar system and supports a diverse range of life forms.
The Importance of Water
Foundation of Life: Water is essential for all known forms of life. It acts as a solvent, allowing nutrients to dissolve and be transported to cells. It is involved in various biochemical reactions that sustain life.
Ecosystems and Habitats: Aquatic ecosystems, such as oceans, rivers, lakes, and wetlands, are home to a myriad of species. These habitats support complex food webs and biodiversity. Terrestrial ecosystems also depend on water for vegetation and wildlife.
Climate Regulation: Water plays a crucial role in regulating the Earth's climate. It absorbs heat, distributes it around the globe through ocean currents, and releases it slowly, stabilizing temperatures. Water vapor in the atmosphere also contributes to the greenhouse effect, which keeps our planet warm enough to support life.
Agriculture and Food Security: Water is vital for agriculture, which in turn feeds the human population. Crops and livestock require water to grow and thrive. Efficient irrigation practices and sustainable water management are essential to ensure food security.
Human Health and Sanitation: Access to clean water is a fundamental human right. It is necessary for drinking, cooking, sanitation, and hygiene. Lack of clean water leads to waterborne diseases and health crises.
The Need to Conserve Water
Finite Resource: Despite its abundance, freshwater is a finite resource. Only 2.5% of Earth's water is freshwater, and less than 1% is readily accessible for human use. The rest is trapped in glaciers, ice caps, and deep underground.
Population Growth and Urbanization: As the global population grows and urbanizes, the demand for water increases. This puts pressure on existing water supplies and infrastructure, leading to over-extraction and depletion of water sources.
Climate Change: Climate change exacerbates water scarcity through altered precipitation patterns, increased evaporation rates, and more frequent and severe droughts. This impacts both water availability and quality.
Pollution: Industrial activities, agricultural runoff, and improper waste disposal contaminate water sources, making them unsafe for use and harming aquatic life.
Conservation Strategies
Efficient Water Use: Implementing water-saving technologies and practices in agriculture, industry, and households can significantly reduce water wastage. This includes drip irrigation, rainwater harvesting, and water-efficient appliances.
Protecting Water Sources: Safeguarding rivers, lakes, wetlands, and aquifers from pollution and over-extraction ensures the sustainability of these vital resources.
Restoration Projects: Restoring degraded ecosystems, such as wetlands and riparian zones, helps to enhance water quality, recharge groundwater, and support biodiversity.
Public Awareness and Education: Raising awareness about the importance of water conservation and promoting responsible water use behavior can lead to collective action and policy changes.
Policy and Legislation: Governments and organizations must enforce regulations that protect water resources, promote sustainable use, and address climate change impacts.
Conclusion
Water is the lifeblood of our planet, driving ecosystems and sustaining all forms of life. To retain the magic of our vibrant blue and green planet, it is imperative that we conserve water. By saving the blue, we ensure the continued existence and prosperity of the greens, preserving the natural beauty and biodiversity of Earth for future generations.

Presentation
I was born in Eluru, AP, India. Since childhood, I used to observe my father Sri M.S.
Murthy, while he was painting and when he finished his work, I used to clean his brushes.
Often, I used same brushes to come up with my own art. I followed my passion for art and
developed my unique style. In a career spanning more than 50 plus years as a professional artist
and have done over 3000 artwork on various subject matter such as landscapes, portraits, still
life, nudes, animals, travel, and botanicals, on different media such as oils on canvas, acrylic
on canvas, water colors on paper, etc.
I studied photography in the JNTU Government College of Fine Arts and Architecture,
Hyderabad and furthering my education by taking Color Photo Technology at the Indian
Institute of Remote Sensing, Dehradun. Upon graduation, I joined Indian Drugs and
Pharmaceuticals Limited, Rishikesh Uttaranchal, as Artist and Photographer. I have also been
serving as the President of Andhra Academy of Arts, Vijayawada for three decades for the
cause and propagation of art.
Living close to Himalayan mountains I got inspired by the splendours of nature and
Ganga river. As a result, nature is often the centerpiece of my work. My sense of the personal,
cultural and world view can be seen in my painting on Indian Tribes and Tribal Dances, Gods
such as Siva, Krishna, Ganesha, Buddha, Saints, etc. Using photography skills and my innate
innovativeness, I have extensively experimented using photo chemicals on bromide and
painting on used X-ray film after treating them. I am one of the very few in the world to do
artwork in this medium. In recent past, I have travelled around the world visiting my children.
Hence city abstracts have also become a recurrent theme.
My work has been exhibited in many prestigious galleries in India. My first exhibition
was in the Raj Bhawan, Hyderabad in the year 1968. Since then, I have exhibited my work at
Jehangir Art Gallery (Mumbai), Nehru Centre (Mumbai), Bajaj Art Gallery (Mumbai), Lalit
Kala Academy (New Delhi), India International Center (New Delhi), Triveni Art Gallery (New
Delhi), Academy of Fine Art (Kolkatta), Lalit Kala Academy (Chennai), Muse Art gallery
(Hyderabad), State Gallery of Fine Arts (Hyderabad). I have received several state and national
level awards. These exhibitions received critical applause from the press & T.V media as well
as enthusiastic response from the art lovers. My artwork is in private collections and galleries
around the world.
More recently, I have also participated and exhibited in several international juried
exhibitions both online and offline such as Studio Montclair NJ; Fusion Art, Palm Springs, CA;
Art impact International; Awesome Art Inc; Youth for Human Rights, Washington DC;
Artivita Online Art; Light Space & Time Online Art Gallery; The Contemporary Art Gallery
Online; Sacramento Fine Arts Center, Carmichael, CA ; Chico Art Center, Chico, CA, and
many others.
When I reflect upon my long association with art, I find that the creative process is just
as intriguing and rewarding as the final outcome of my projects. This desire to create has always
been strong even when others have tried to dissuade me. The internal push to create has given
me an appreciation for the process of exploration, patience and the beauty of art. I believe this
creative and explorative journey has become about freedom to create and the freedom to
express myself.
