Numbers for the Day

Forest area makes up 33% of the total land area in the United States.

21 out of 822 native American fish species now are extinct and 2/3 of the nation’s freshwater mussels are at risk of extinction.

Less than 1% of all the world’s water can be used for drinking. About 97% is undrinkable and glaciers and ice caps hold the other 2%.

… These “Numbers for the Day” are dedicated to our vital environmental non-profits, who are working to keep Greater Washington’s rivers clean and our wildlife healthy.
