I found a lot of conflicting information about the wettest place on earth. Some sources claim it's Hawaii (U.S.), while others claim it's Colombia in South America.

However, it's well established that the Atacama Desert in South America is the driest place on earth.

Please check your textbook to see what its author says.
New information -- Antarctica has the driest place on earth.
