​Why Save Water

​Did you know that less than 1% of all the water on Earth can be used by people? The rest is salt water (the kind you find in the ocean) or is permanently frozen and we can't drink it, wash with it, or use it to water plants.

​

​As our population grows, more and more people are using up this limited resource. Therefore, it is important that we use our water wisely and not waste it.
