1. Only 20% of Global Wastewater is Treated Globally, nearly 80% of wastewater is discharged untreated—a major threat to rivers, lakes, and oceans. In India, the number is improving but still below optimal standards. Why it matters: Untreated sewage leads to waterborne diseases, groundwater contamination, and marine biodiversity loss.
2. Treated Sewage Water Can Be Reused Treated water from STPs (Sewage Treatment Plants) can be safely reused for: •
Flushing toilets
•
Gardening and irrigation
•
Industrial processes and cooling towers
