washing, making things able to grow, enabling a sponge to be able to be used for cleaning, doing dishes. Even driving a car with hydrogen and water the output. Make cement. With the right equipment in a river it make power. Turn a water wheel too. Swimming. Run an evaporative cooler where the climate supports it. Flushing of waste products. That is about all I can think about for this topic.

We give the grandkids spray bottles and they chase each other around the yard. Hubby is often soaking wet as a result.

There are many uses of water. They are unlimited but still the main uses of water without which we can't live are drinking, cooking, washing, cleaning, etc.

I use water to keep my son happy. He is at his happiest when I let him play til his hearts content in water. I also use it in my artwork, working with clay. Then there is keeping my houseplants watered which adds to quality of life around my home.

Hi!it's my first time to respond your topic with pleasure. it seems that too much use of water had been said by the above myloters,so i don't think it's necessary for me to say more about its use. but still,what i wanna say is that as everyone knows water is of the essence to our life,so,never waste water ,and use it on a proper and efficient way. that is good for you,and also good for each one on this planet. wish you all the best!
