Water resources include groundwater held underground, rivers, lakes, and reservoirs. Water is essential for human and plant life as well as industrial processes. However, water resources face threats from pollution, depletion from overuse, and climate change intensifying the water cycle. Land resources cover 29% of the Earth's surface and include various types of land used for habitats, agriculture, and extracting resources like iron, coal, diamonds, oil, and gold. Proper management of land and water resources is important to protect the environment from pollution and ensure sustainable access to these vital resources.
