Water! Why is it so special?

[Thomas Sullivan]

Water! Why is it so special? It does cover 70.78% of the earth’s surface which is about 139.4 square miles. We can’t really run away from it, not matter how hard we try or how far we go water will be there. Forty- two percent is clean drinking water which is mostly shared by Canada and the United States of America. Multi-billionaire bottling companies privatize the clean water because they know that it’s the one natural resource that everyone would pay an arm and a leg for. So what the companies do is they sale it to make a profit. The biggest reason people would go out of their way for clean drinking water, is for survival which is the topic. Survival is so huge, but water is even bigger, human being can only live for 3 to 5 days without water. Why is it so special? Maybe it’s because we can’t live without it, maybe it’s just some that has been around for millions of years and we grew fond of it. Whatever the reason is it must be special.

I agree with you ,
the big billion dollar companies clearly dont realize that peoples lives are at risk because of their greedy decisions, water is a natural resource that nobody should own , al they care about is makeing a profit by selling over priced water. If the world runs out of drinkable water, then they will realize that you can't survive off of money, we need water .

I agree with you, major companies need to realize stop thinking about their money and the rest of society. They cause pollution and are severely affecting the environment. Not only do companies affect the environment, it's some technology like computers, cell phones etc.
What they do not realize is that it kills animals that live in the water such as dead fish, birds dolphins and many other animals often end up being on beaches dead. Also many companies use plastic and people throw it in the waterways.
