Seven facts about water Narrator: Water, water – but it isn’t everywhere. Speaker 1: Water – it’s easy for us, isn’t it? It’s everywhere. When we want water, it’s there – we cook with it, we wash with it, and when we’re thirsty we drink it. Water is very important for our survival on our planet. Here are some facts that perhaps you didn’t know about water. Speaker 2: One – there are two kinds of water on planet Earth: fresh water and salt water. We can only drink fresh water. Salt water isn’t drinkable. Speaker 1: Two – of all the fresh water on the planet, people can only get to and use about one per cent of it. Only about one per cent – the other 99 per cent of fresh water is in places we can’t get to. For example … Speaker 2: Three – about 70 per cent of all the fresh water on earth is in Antarctica, at the South Pole, in the ice and icebergs there. Lots of fresh water, but it’s frozen, and very far away from where we live. So we can’t use it. Speaker 1: Four – most of us get our water at home out of a tap. Sometimes the tap drips because it’s old or because someone hasn’t turned it off properly. So what? Well, a dripping tap can sometimes waste about 75 litres of water every day. Speaker 2: Five – in western homes – in the USA for example, or in Europe – one person can use as much as 500 litres of water a day. An African family might only use about 20 litres a day. Speaker 1: Six – every day, millions of people – especially women and children – walk very long distances to get water, from rivers or lakes or wells, and sometimes the water is dirty and polluted. This means lots of bad things, for example … Speaker 2: Seven – many people get sick because they drink water. 88 per cent of all diseases in the world are caused by drinking dirty water.
