I used to live in a place where the building management would hire some workes to wash the water tent up on every building once a month.Whenever they did this,the management will always give a notice in advance to tell everyone to get ready for it.Therefore,many people will use some kinds of container to save some water for coooking and shower purpose shortly before the claening start.It was so inconvience all the times for everyone (although it was only a few hours).But it provided an insight for me to think of a question:What will happen if suddenly the world has no more water?Share with us about your opinion!

Well... first we would die. Water is an essential part of our diet. We can go weeks without food, but only a few days without water. Water is in a majority of our foods and in everything we drink. We just couldn't survive without it. Never mind not being able to cook or bathe ever again.

Well, it wouldn't happen immediately, but if there was suddenly no access to water at all for living beings, then that would mean the end of the living world. There is not a living being in this world that would be able to survive without access to water. It would probably take less than a week for all living things to be extinct. I really hate to think about it in this way, but that is truly the way that it would end up being.

That would be one heck of a situation to be in! I hope that we never arrive at that stage! I love watching some of those survival programs whereby they show you how to obtain water in the worst case scenario, like being trapped in a dessert! I think it's good to stock pile water as it is such a necessity! I think the saying is, you can survive for three weeks without any food but without water you really are in trouble! Andrew

We humans would not survive without water. Think about it, we need water to cook with, to drink, to shower and wash clothes with. Watering our flowers, plants and trees. Everything will eventually die without water including humans.

We will all die because of dehydration. I hope this would not happen. I'll cross my two fingers.
