National Water Quality Month

Celebrate National Water Quality Month with your students this August!

Start singing in the rain—because without water, there would be no life. Water makes up about 70 percent of Earth’s surface, and it is essential for all living organisms. As the world’s population continues to grow, water becomes an increasingly important resource, and many different water users—from large farms, to cities, to individual homeowners—want a share of the supply. As global weather changes, severe water events, like droughts and floods, become more common and can impact millions of people. Learn more about the ways water moves through the water cycle and the reasons it is so important for life.
