Water Conservation Our drinking water can come from wells‚ rivers and reservoirs. Our water usually does notcome from the ocean‚ because it is too salty to drink. The water in our rivers and reservoirscomes from precipitation. The amount of rain on average is almost the same from year toyear‚ while the population on the other hand is increasing. That means there is less water for each person in the future.Everyone should try to conserve water. However‚ it matters most to conserve where the population

The importance of water Water is one of the weirdest compounds known to humans. The difference between the boiling point and freezing point of water is one of the largest ranges of any compound. It is this span of temperature that mirrors the range of where life can exist‚ from bacteria to humans. Water also has a very high specific heat‚ which means that it can absorb or lose much heat before its temperature changes. This is important in maintaining body heat in mammals. It also takes a lot of

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

WATER RESOURCES What are water resources? Water resources are sources of water that are useful or potentially useful to humans. It is important because it is needed for life to exist. Many uses of water include agricultural‚ industrial‚ household‚ recreational and environmental activities. Virtually all of these human uses require fresh water. Only 2.7% of water on the Earth is fresh water‚ and over two thirds of this is frozen in glaciers and polar ice caps‚ leaving only
