Your Water Sources Are Older Than Human Civilization
That aquifer your ancestors learned to find? The water you're drawing might have fallen as rain 10,000 years ago, when your land was green savanna roamed by creatures we now know only from bones. Some desert aquifers contain "fossil water" from the last Ice Age. You're not just drawing from a well—you're drinking from a time capsule, consuming water that predates the pyramids, that fell from clouds when mammoths still walked the earth. !nb
