Activity Books Understanding Water Activity Book | Page 57

We use water every day. We also use products that
need water to grow or be made. The food we eat needs
water to grow.
A farmer who lives downstream from you grows
tomatoes, onions and lettuce. Pretend you had a salad
using tomato, onion and lettuce for lunch. Where did
the tomato, onion and lettuce come from? They came
from the farmer who lives downstream from you. The
farmer uses water you have already used to grow the
vegetables. It is important to keep our water clean so
the farmer has clean water to use.
Write a description of what you can do to help get clean
water to farmers to irrigate the vegetables you eat for
lunch...
