* If we compare the properties of water to the five requirements of the mineral definition we find that it fails to qualify as a mineral. Water is a liquid so it does not meet requirement #3 - being a solid * However, at temperatures below 32 degrees Fahrenheit or 0 degrees Celsius water becomes the solid material that we call "ice"

* Some believe that the need to drink per day for liters of water * The water contains calcium, sodium, iodine, iron, magnesium, fluoride, copper and other biochemical processes * There are different views on how to use the water * Some improving techniques recommended to “taking” the water in the morning on an empty stomach, and it should be hot

* Mineral water is something entirely different. Here the word "mineral" is used in reference to dissolved solids that occur in the water as it is taken from a natural source such as a spring * Natural mineral waters are found at many locations worldwide and vary widely in composition. * Under other circumstances these waters are bottled and sold to people who believe that the dissolved "minerals" might provide a health benefit

* Flooding is the world’s most expensive type of natural disaster. The cost of global flood damage is hundreds of billions of euros. The Pakistan floods of July 2010 alone caused more than €7 billion euros of damage. * Floods can occur in coastal areas or close to rivers. When huge sheets of water cover low-lying areas, they can cause immense damage to property and threaten lives. * European space technology is a key weapon in the fight against floods. The first line of defence is provided by the Meteosat and MetOp weather satellites. These show developing storm systems and allow accurate forecasts of wind and rain.

* 1913 Great Lakes storm * 1931 China floods * 1912 sinking of RMS Titanic and 1987 sinking of MV Doña Paz * 1970 Bhola Cyclone and 2008 Cyclone Nargis * 1989 Exxon Valdez Oil Spill and the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill * 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami * 2005 Hurricane Katrina

* More than 3.4 million people die each year from water, sanitation, and hygiene-related causes. Nearly all deaths, 99 percent, occur in the developing world * An American taking a five-minute shower uses more water than the average person in a developing country slum uses for an entire day * At birth, water accounts for approximately 80 percent of an infant’s body weight * By the time a person feels thirsty, his or her body has lost over 1 percent of its total water amount * The weight a person loses directly after intense physical activity is weight from water, not fat

* Showering * Brushing teeth * Bath * Toilet flush * Drinking,cooking,etc. * Washing machine * Dishwasher * Washing car
