Hello 150040,
•The
Middle East is an arid
(dry) region where little rain falls
•Rivers
are the main source of water for drinking and for power in many countries in
the Middle East
•The
Middle East contains 5% of the world’s population, but it has less than 1% of
the world’s freshwater resources.
•Southwest
Asia is mostly desert, resulting in the lack of water, but an even
greater need for it. Southwest Asians need the water to drink, trade,
and to grow the crops needed to survive.
