Contaminated water, especially in impoverished areas, kills millions of people a year, while warming oceans, Arctic melt, and disappearing rainforests are a threat to the environment. This book shows how humans use water and how we can help preserve it in the wake of these threats. Statistics and fact boxes help readers understand various issues related to water, from drought and flooding to desalination and pollution."-- 521 8 $a Ages 11-14. 650 0 $a Water conservation $v Juvenile literature $9 44318 650 0 $a Water-supply $v Juvenile literature $9 44319 650 0 $a Water $x Pollution $v Juvenile literature $9 44320 650 0 $a Environmental protection $v Juvenile literature $9 42840 800 1 $a Steele, Philip, $d 1948- $t Analyzing environmental change. $9 44018 941 $a 1 952 $l PYAX423 $d 20200121010928.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=CC2AB8B0369B11EAA59B8B3C97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
