Water
is Life
- If there was no water on Earth, there would be no plants, animals
or humans! All living things need water to live.
- The human body is almost 70 percent water. Every part of our
body uses water.
- A farmer needs water to grow crops, like the apples or corn that we eat. For a farmer, a drought means there is not enough water in the soil for crops to grow. A farmer may have to grow fewer crops during a drought.
- Tomatoes are 90 percent water, potatoes are 80 percent water,
and chickens are 75 percent water.
- People can live several weeks without food, but only a few days
without water.
- One gallon of water weighs 8.34 pounds!
- Each day, we should drink at least eight
glasses of water.
