The gaseous phase of water is known as water vapor (or steam), and is characterized by water assuming the configuration of a transparent cloud.

While deforestation and unsustainable management practices can lead to increased water pollution, sustainable forest management in watersheds can help to protect supplies of freshwater.

In allocating groundwater resources, account should be taken of the amount of groundwater in reserve and of the rate of its replenishment.

The main water sources are surface waters.

With the era of cheap, bountiful water having been replaced by increasing supply and quality constraints, many investors are beginning to view water as the new oil.
