Freshwater only makes up a tiny portion of the earth’s total water and yet it is as important to our economy and industry as it is to our bodies to stay alive. Industry is the second largest with drawer of water only behind agriculture. There are many aspects of freshwater industry ranging from power generation to fishing. There are two main categories freshwater industry can be split into and these are withdrawal uses, these remove the water from it environment for use and in stream uses in which the water isn’t moved.

Instream uses: Hydroelectric power is power produced from falling or flowing water this turns a turbine which produces electricity. Water transport- boats are the most economical way to move bulk goods, rivers play a very large part in this industry allowing boats access far inland.
