We Need Fresh Water
By Linda Ruggieri
Our planet is Earth. Water covers most of our planet. Almost all of that water is saltwater. Saltwater is very salty. Many People, animals, and plants need fresh water to live. Freshwater is not salty.
Earth doesn't have as much freshwater as saltwater. People should remember to use freshwater carefully. They should never waste it.
Where is Earth's freshwater? Freshwater is found in rivers, lakes, and streams. It can also find it under the ground. Machines pump the water to the surface for people to us.
