Clean water - a priceless asset .: En37-81/3-1989E-PDF
"What's in a glass, a sink, a river full of water? A refreshing drink, a cleansing wash, an invigorating swim, a home for plants, insects, fish, birds and mammals. It all depends on the water quality ... determined by the kinds and amounts of substances dissolved and suspended in the water and what those substances do to inhabitants of the ecosystem. It is the concentrations of these substances that determine the water quality and its suitability for particular purposes"--p. [1].
