oceans. This water is too salty to be used for drinking, farming, and manufacturing. Only about 3% of the world
s water is fresh.
Most of this water is not easily available to man because it is locked in glaciers icecaps.
There is as much water on earth today as there ever was or will ever be. Most of the water we use finds its way to the
oceans. There, it is evaporated by the sun. It then falls back to the earth as rain. Water is used and reused over and over again.
It is never used up
Although the world as a whole has plenty of fresh water, some regions have a water shortage. Rain does not fall evenly over
the earth. Some regions are always too dry, and others too wet. A region that usually gets enough rain may suddenly have a
serious dry spell and another region may be flooded with too much rain.
