Each is a main source of water for communities around them. They feed the rivers and lakes in small towns and cities dotted along their path. A decrease or increase in river lines affects millions of people.

To compare the flow of the Amazon to the Mississippi try the following. Take 2 two liter soft drink bottles and cut off the tops. Fill them with water. Now take a 12 oz. can (or 750ml or something close) and remove the top. Label the two liter bottles "Amazon." Label the can "Mississippi." Have someone turn them upside down at the same time and compare them.
