Of all the surface water that covers the Earth, only 3 percent is freshwater. Of that 3 percent, about two-thirds of it is frozen in glaciers and polar ice caps. That means only about 0.3 percent of all of the water on the planet's surface is safe and useable for drinking, showering, watering our crops, and powering our industries. The world's supply of freshwater is small. It's also in danger of being depleted and degraded by factors such as climate change and overdevelopment. While the demand for freshwater is growing faster and faster, there is good news: freshwater is one of a very few natural resources that are renewable. That means that freshwater can be replenished, and there are many companies and organizations worldwide that are fighting to preserve rivers, lakes, and wetlands so they will continue to provide water for all of the many ways we use it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Laura La Bella\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1435853768\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781435853768\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Rosen Young Adult\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/30\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 64\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 7.00w x 0.40d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.1\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 2\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Upper Grade\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eQuiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e128310 \/ Not Enough to Drink: Pollution, Drought, and Tainted Water Supplies\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Laura La Bella","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48807887864063,"sku":"9781435853768","price":13.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/not-enough-to-drink-laura-la-bella-9781435853768","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
