It is in our taps, it falls from the sky, and it makes up more than half of our bodies. Because water is everywhere, it is easy to take it for granted. But water is actually the most precious thing on Earth. Without it, life simply could not exist.

However, almost all of that water is salty ocean water that we cannot drink.

97% of Earth's water is salty.

2% is frozen solid in glaciers.

Only 1% is fresh water that we can actually use for drinking, cooking, and growing food.

Sharing that tiny 1% among billions of people, animals, and farms is one of the biggest challenges we face today.
