Description

Water is a source of life on our planet. All living things need water to grow and develop. We live on the blue planet, named this way because 3/4 of the Earth’s surface is covered with water. Even so, fresh water is a scarce source that must be preserved. Through this educational itinerary you will learn about the fresh water reserves of the planet as well as drought areas that can not supply fresh drinking water to all the inhabitants.
