Reply to comment by its_alot_ in We have water below us and above us by JanQuadrantVincent32

Yes, I was thinking about the clouds and then sea level + water tables. We have water all around us on this amazing planet. It even floats in the sky above us.

Is it weird how the salt water becomes fresh water? What do sea levels have to do with it? That reminds me of that saying about all the water on earth now, is how much there always was.. so were you thinking about if sea levels are rising then.. idk 😅

Edit: our atmosphere is wetter than usual???

I was mostly thinking about water tables, I live in an area with water tables everywhere and thought it was funny we had water down low beneath our feet and also floating in clouds overhead. But now that you mention it yes its literally in the very air we breath. We’re literally surrounded by water.

I had no idea idea what water tables were and now I find out.. well now I click.. that ofc there's water under land! It didn't occur to me. So it's the bit where the groundwater meets the soil?

That means we have water on water below us. The fresh groundwater and the ocean that our land floats on top of. You also don't really think of diving under a country do you. I've gone on a tangent..

Aah yes water above and below 😌
