- Summary:
- Humans cannot survive for more than a few days without water. We are made of 70% water, and so is the entire planet. For these reasons, human identity is forever linked to water, both fresh and salt. The Uru people have take "living with nature" to a whole new level. They live on little islands that are found on Lake Titicaca that on closer inspection, you would realise are completely man-made! The Uros have actually used the resources created by the lake to build their homes.
