Fresh water is not a limitless resource. It is rare, making up only 1% of all the available water on Earth, but all the billions of land animals, including humans, need fresh water to survive. How is human activity affecting this important resource?
Dividing the Earth up by its biomes is one way of making sense of the different landscapes we see. A biome is a large region of the Earth with its own climate, landscape, plants, soils, animals and water systems, all of which interact to create the biome’s features.
