Question

advantages of water conservation​

Answer 1

Since 71% of the earth is covered in water, some people can't help but wonder: Why should we conserve?

Here are a few important facts about water on this planet from the U.S. Department of Interior's Bureau of Reclamation:

Ninety-seven percent of all water on the earth is salt water, which is not suitable for drinking.

Only 3% of water on Earth is fresh water, and only 0.5% is available for drinking.

The other 2.5% of fresh water is locked in ice caps, glaciers, the atmosphere, soil, or under the earth's surface, or is too polluted for consumption.
