Freshwater concept
Freshwater is water that occurs naturally on the Earth's
surface in ice sheets, ice fields, glaciers, icebergs,
wetlands, ponds, lakes, rivers, below the surface as
groundwater, in aquifers, groundwater streams, and in
the drinking water distribution network built by human
beings.

food for people but also for metabolic processes.

for human consumption.
Why is water important
in human life?
● Cleanses the kidneys of toxic
substances.
● Provides moisture to the mouth
and eyes.
● Maintains body temperatura
● It transports, through the blood,
oxygen and food.
● keeps you hydrated
Water availability
The natural availability of water depends fundamentally
on the balance between the water that enters the system
through precipitation and what is lost through
evaporation in water bodies and through plant
evapotranspiration. The difference between what rains
and what evaporates can run off the surface (in streams
and rivers), be stored in surface water bodies, or reach
the subsoil and recharge aquifers.
What is the availability of water on Earth?

The average annual availability of

water in the world is approximately
1,386 million km3, of which 97% is
salt water, 3%, that is 35 million km3,
is fresh water and of this almost
70% is not available for human
consumption because it is in the
form of glaciers, snow or ice.
Why is water availability important?
Water is the most important element for life. It is of vital
importance for the human being, as well as for the rest of
the animals and living beings that accompany us on
planet Earth. Water is essential for the global functioning
of the planet
