-Need Water To Survive- Blue Gold

Today I watched a movie that was about water, its called 'Blue Gold'. I learned that the world has 97% of salt water and 3% of fresh water. Everyone needs water to survive we drink water and our food grows from water. Many places such as Asia, Africa,and india all have little access to water. There was a lake that was so big it was called the Aral sea,but today there is no water there at all. The reason why is because everyone was taking water from the lake to grow food, but they had no way to put the water back. In Africa a woman lost her two daughter because their shack caught on fire while they were in it. There was no water to put the fire out, all the neighbors could do was watch helplessly. There are big company's that can try to change salt water into fresh water but its takes a lot of energy and what the company is going to do is charge for water. Water is free but now you have to buy it. In Califorina there is a tunnel that they get their water from, but its more than 25 miles aways. But where they getting there from is taking from the people that live in that country or town. To save water u can turn off the water when u brush your teeth & many other things that can save water. Remember everyone we need water to live.
