Ogallala aquifer supplies "one-third of the irrigation water" in the United States.
<u>EXPLANATION:</u>
The "Ogallala aquifer" is located in the "Great Plains of the United States" and therefore gives life to almost all fields of the US.
The aquifer supplies water for one-third irrigation needs of the United States. The Ogallala is an underground reservoir and is very big in size and the agriculture production in the US is dependent on this aquifer.
The aquifer is however depleting and water level in many areas has become very low.
It is important for United States to protect and preserve this aquifer so that the agricultural production does not suffer.
Recycling can prevent <em>more </em>plastics and other products that are harmful to the environment from being made. Because we are recycling the products so we can't make more of it.
