Life‚ both animal and plant‚ is impossible without water. Without water men die of dehydration About 70% of the human body is water. Of the total surface of the earth‚ 75 % is water and just below the surface of the land in most areas there is a saturated layer known as the water table. Animals and plants have large percentages of water in their make-up and some animals regulate their movements according to the water sources. If there is no water there can be no life.

Philosophy 101 8/4/2014 Saving Water Water is a natural resource that many take for granted; yet it is one we are quick to mourn when it is not present when we need it‚ such as for drinking‚ or when a disaster occurs that thrusts its vulnerability to the forefront of our daily news. Twenty years from now‚ will you have abundant‚ clean water? Unfortunately‚ the answer may be no‚ unless you want to buy water at $3 per gallon. People are already starting to conserve water. Many communities are putting

While cell membranes‚ heredity‚ gene expression‚ evolution‚ cellular metabolism‚ and chemical reactions are all appealing‚ water is undeniably more relevant.

Water and Fire Water and fire are two of the “classical elements” as said by the ancient Greeks. In regard to today’s society‚ science has found this to be myth and quite a humorous joke. Yes saying that it is an element when regarding Chemistry and when saying it makes up humans‚ is ridiculous. When looking at it from a different perspective than I’d have to agree with the ancient Greeks. When they say “classical elements” it is saying that these are two things that are major components of life

In elementary school‚ the water cycle is taught. First‚ bodies of water evaporate water into the sky. Next‚ clouds form and the rain follows. The rain either soaks into the ground or turns into runoff to fill the streams and ponds. This cycle brings life to the planet. Humans‚ animals and plants depend on the constant refreshment of moisture. But‚ as humans have evolved‚ pollution has contaminated the precious water supply. The causes of pollution are sewage disposal‚ agriculture production‚ and

WATER POLLUTION INTRODUCTION Although some kinds of water pollution can occur through natural processes‚ it is mostly a result of human activities. We use water daily in our homes and industries‚ about 150 gallons per day per person in the United States. The water we use is taken from lakes and rivers‚ and from underground (groundwater); and after we have used it-- and contaminated it-- most of it returns to these locations. The used water of a community is called wastewater‚ or sewage. If
