The Battle of Lake Champlain was an important victory because it created a dent in the British plan to invade from the North and it ultimately convinced the British to surrender the War of 1812, which caused the US to gain worldwide respect. To begin, the British had been trying to invade America from the south, but they had very little success. They then decided to try and invade from the North, using Plattsburg, a city on the shores of Lake Champlain, as their headquarters for the invasion. This is why it was so vital that the US won the Battle of Lake Champlain because it hurt the British plan to invade by destroying a major part of their plan. This also convinced them that it would be too difficult and expensive for the benefit they would

Wakulla Springs is one of the largest and deepest freshwater springs in the world. The spring flow rate is about two hundred million gallons of water a day. The water flow of the springs develops at the caves of the Florida Aquafers. The water then forms the Wakulla River and flows 9 miles southeast. After flowing 9 miles the Wakulla River joins the St. Marks River. The St. Marks River then empties out into the Gulf of Mexico at the Apalachee Bay. Part of the Wakulla Springs water system is the Wakulla underwater cave system. The Wakulla- Leo Sink cave system is the longest underwater cave system in the United States (Friends of Wakulla Springs).

The Chattahoochee is notable because on its damming and the creation of Lake Lanier in the 1950s. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers provided the money and resources for the dam’s construction and operate the lake itself. Since a federal agency operates the systems and was funded by other states, water claims by Alabama and Florida are constant.

The Pollution in Lake Manawa is something I have came face to face with when I went Into the water. As I was swimming I felt plants in the water. I then felt my foot scoop up a plastic bottle. This is an environmental issue because this water and can kill our fish. My dad said he remembered the first time he went there he could see the fish in the water and see all the plants.

Based on the country 's population, there 's a large percentage of people living in the big cities which "has the greatest water availability". Cities usually use, reservoirs to sub sustain their population. Caracas gets their water supplies from these reservoirs: Camatagua, La Mariposa, La Pereza, Taguaza, Taguacita, Lagartijo, Quebrada Seca, Macaroa river, and Cuira (Gonzalez 2015).

Some of these water supplies come from the El Avila national park as does from the Macaroa national park. The majority of them are surface bodies of water but flow within the underground watershed to conserve the water supply during the drought. It is understandable that, “Of all the drinking water consumed in the city of Caracas, over eighty percent comes from the Tuy I, Tuy II and Tuy III aqueducts, which are fed from the watershed basins of the Tuy and Camatagua rivers. These basins have been undermined in recent years by long droughts, combined with short rainy seasons and a greater demand for
