Water Conservation

WATER’S FUTURE?

   

By Maris B. and Abby P.

  

       Hi! Have you heard that Earth's water could be in TROUBLE?

This could be bad since all plants and animals depend on water to survive

Even though water can be renewed through the water cycle, it must be clean for it to be worthwhile.We need to keep what isn't already polluted maintained and unharmed.  After all, only 1 percent of Earth's water remains safe to consume. What few know is that our most often used substance is water. Think of how many ways you use water each day! And, think of how many animals live in watery habitats!

       How can kids like you and me help save our water? For one thing, we can take shorter showers. Another thing we can do is turn off the faucet when we are not using it. You should ask your parents about getting a flow stopping shower attachment piece. This will go to the temperature you want your shower to be, and then stop the flow of the shower until you hop in and pull the string. Water conservation is all about using water wisely. What ways can you think of to conserve water?

Now for some fun facts!

1. In Africa, some areas have merry-go-rounds that pump water for everyday use.
2. In some areas, adults send their kids to get that day's supply of water.

Thank you for reading this blog post, and remember EVERY DROP COUNTS!
