Water: all life depends on it.
Some of us live near oceans, or rivers, or lakes. Others are lucky enough to see waterfalls on a regular basis. Still others live where water is scarce. No matter where we live, we recognise that this resource is precious.
It's the reason our planet is a blue marble.
This month, tell us about water in your life. Send us your aquatic photos. Tell us your stories. Add to the Edited Guide.

"A collaborative guide, one that was written and kept up to date by the people who used it, in real time, might be a neat idea. I just didn't really realise that such a thing might be possible in my lifetime or how powerful such a thing might be."
