Groundwater is used for drinking water supply, irrigation for agriculture, and industrial processes such as cooling and manufacturing. It is also used for maintaining ecosystems and supporting wetlands.
earths water- saltine (oceans) 97% fresh water 3% fresh water- ice caps and glaciers 68.7% ground water 30.1% surface water .3% other .9% fresh surface water- rivers 2% swamps 11% lakes 87%
Ways they are used 1. Wood supply 2. Develop new machinery 3. Lumber companies Ways they are being threatened 1. Being cut down 2. Being used for farming
Roughly 0.3% of Earth's total water is fresh water, and about two-thirds of it is stored in glaciers and ice caps. This leaves less than 1% of the world’s fresh water as surface water available for human consumption.
To recharge the groundwater table, you can implement techniques such as rainwater harvesting, constructing recharge wells or pits, restoring wetlands, and implementing permeable pavement to allow water to infiltrate the ground. These methods help enhance natural processes of water percolation into the ground, ultimately replenishing the groundwater table. It's important to manage land use and reduce pollutants to ensure the recharge process is effective and sustainable.
Precipitation: Increased rainfall can raise the water table by adding more water to the underground aquifers. Drought: Prolonged periods of low precipitation can lower the water table as less water percolates into the ground to replenish aquifers. Land use changes: Deforestation or urbanization can alter the hydrological cycle and lead to changes in water table depth due to changes in the way water is absorbed or drained from the ground.
There was significant loss of water, there was degradation of the land and decline in ground water level.

The 3 general ways you can conserve water is by:1. Washing things only when necessary to do so.2. Do not use water when it is needed.3. Be aware of how much water you are using.
3 ways to save water is......Take shorter showersTurn the water off when u r brushing ur teethLeft over water goes to animals or plants
1. the water you used for washing clothes can be used as watering plants 2. close the faucet when not in used 3. water from rain can be used for washing genitals 4. if you have leaking faucets fix it immediately
here are 3 ways... 1) temperature going down 2) the salinity of the water 3) ice blocks...
