More Precious than Oil: FRESH WATER - Clayton D Steep - September 1981

Clayton D Steep

The world's attention has been focused on petroleum supplies. But another vital resource - fresh water - has been taken for granted. Oil? People got by without it for thousands of years. We could too if we had to. We could find alternate sources of energy. We could develop synthetic fuels. We could substitute and modify. We could live without it. Not so for fresh water! Life depends on it. Our bodies are composed mostly of water. We need fresh water to function - to drink, to bathe in, to grow food. There is no artificial water, no "synwater." It has to be the real thing. But there is plenty of water on earth. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
