Describe the water cycle in two sentences.

The water cycle is the continuous movement of water on, above, and below the surface of the Earth, driven by the sun's energy. It involves processes like evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and collection, ensuring that water is constantly recycled and redistributed across the planet. (greedy generation)
