Water cycle
The movement of water around, over, and through the Earth is called the water cycle. We can consider the starting point and ending point are the same.


Water is Essential for Life
It covers 71% of the earth's surface and makes up 65 % of our bodies. Everyone wants clean water-- to drink, for recreation, and just to enjoy looking at. If water becomes polluted, its loses its value to us economically and aesthetically, and can become a threat to our health and to the survival of the fish living in it and the wildlife that depend on it.

How does water pollution occur?

Although some kinds of water pollution can occur through natural processes, it is mostly a result of human activities.We use water daily in our homes and industries.After we have used it and contaminated it.most of it returns to these locations. The used water of a community is called wastewater, or sewage. If it is not treated before being discharged into waterways, serious pollution is the result.
