Why water cycle is important?
Many of us think water will always be there for us when we want it. Without water, living things would die. You will die if you go without water for more than a week. Plants will die without water and that would kill all of the animals that eat the plants.
When disasters happen, the first helpful thing that we send is water. In Australia, we have become so used to having water that we don't think about other countries that suffer years and years of drought; where children drink dirty water that makes them sick, and people walk miles just to get that.
We learned from the water cycle that we are using and re-using the same water that has been on earth since the beginning of time. The scary part is that while the water is the same, the amount of clean water has gone down. At some point, if we do not take care of it, we will be left with only contaminated water.
The water cycle is important because it ensure the availability of water for all living things. 95% of our world is water but most of it is either frozen or underground and also purifies water ready for re-use.
