FUN WAI    R FACTS  OF  LIFE

  Water is composed of two elements. Hydrogen
  and Oxygen. 2 Hydrogen +  I Oxygen =  H,0.
  Water regulates the Earth's temperature. It
  also regulates the temperature of the human
  body, carries nutrients and oxygen to cells,
  cushions joints, protects organs and tissues,
  and removes wastes.
  Water is part of a deeply interconnected
  system. What we pour on the ground ends up
  in our water, and what we spew into the sky
  ends up in our water.
  The average cost for water supplied to a
  home in the U.S. is about $2.00 for 1,000
  gallons, which equals about 5 gallons for
  a penny.
