California drought getting worse!
Rachel Teeter
Water for life
On Earth, where there is so much water, there is still a shortage. Water is the basis of all life on earth, and every single living thing needs it, but while there is so much, not all of is usable. Only 2% of the water on earth is freshwater(water we can use) and even most of that is frozen in the poles or used for agriculture needs and is not accessible to humans. ⅔ of the earths water is in the oceans, and even though humans need SOME salt, the high salt content of the ocean water could cause death. The earths population goes up, but the water amount goes down, and a lot of the water is being lost due to human waist. The water shortage is causing conflict between countries, and global warming and different chemicals are polluting our small amount of water. If nothing is done, life could cease to exist.
