All living organisms on earth need water to survive. many, including humans, require fresh water, but only 3% of the water on the earth's surface is fresh water. how is fresh water important to you? how does this affect the way you manage your use of fresh water?

I would say that fresh water is important to me because it literally keeps us all alive. Without water, nothing would be able to survive on Earth. Freshwater especially because we use freshwater in our houses. We use freshwater in everything at home including garden hoses, sinks, and showers. Only 3% of the water on Earth is freshwater meaning that we have to conserve the water we use. Whether that is by taking shorter showers or simply turning it off as we brush our teeth.
