Metamorphosis of water
Did you know that water is our good friend?
Our water is a precious resource. Only 2.5% of all water on the planet is freshwater, the rest being salt water. Over 70% of this freshwater is found in Arctic and Antarctic icecaps, and almost all the rest is found beneath the earth’s surface, most of the time inaccessible or yet, is contained as moisture within the soil. Our water is present in three states: liquid, solid and gas.
