Water is perhaps man's most important natural resource. He needs it for drinking and home uses, for
agriculture, for the power to run his machines. and even for boating, fishing and relaxation. But usable water is not
as abundant as the demand for it has been. For centuries men have fought each other over their rights to use
springs, streams, and rivers which are so essential to life. Because the earth's water supply is not distributed evenly,
one area suffers from floods while another is parched and dried up and still another enjoys ideal conditions. Much
of man's energy has been spent in diverting rivers and streams and digging wells and canals. Unfortunately, man
has not been very successful in his efforts to redistribute his water supply evenly.
Man's efforts to control water were not always successful. Although wonderful progress was made
in some areas, such as when desert regions became, green and fertile, in other areas great harm was done. The
delicate balance of nature is upset by lowering water levels or by polluting rivers with industrial wastes.

Sometimes the whole climate of an area is affected by water changes. In earlier centuries, man satisfied
his needs by living only were water was abundant. If the land became damaged, he would move to a better location.

Hydrologists have already discovered many possible ways to help the earth's water problems, but a
practical application of many of them is not yet possible, mainly because of the expense.
