Our environment is in a fragile state of existence to the point where it has become our responsibility to nurture and care for it as it has done for us these many centuries. The obvious answer to why it’s pertinent for us to begin the healing process to our earth would be to save ourselves. Yet, through my research of global warming and even the research done in media class of all the evils human beings are capable of has just made me all the more keen on saving our planet – the innocent bystander of our irresponsibility.
In my quest to “Go Green” as Dr. Smith has encouraged us to, I found myself at a loss for certain answers. Why must we conserve our water supply? It was always sort of a given to me that water is all around us and it will always be available. The explanation I found was that people use our planets fresh water faster than it can be replenished. This does pose a problem because the human adult body is 50-65 percent water. Therefore, to maintain a healthy body system, I’m sure we all want the best quality of water we can get.
Here’s a site that points out some of the key values of water: What is "safe" water and why is it important?
A few tactics of conserving water will be linked to my will power. I myself enjoy long showers because it tends to be the time in which my thought process is the most fluid of artistic ideas. My solution to this will be to get one of those running waterfall fountains or just attempt to break the habit. A more practical approach towards over-indulgence of water would be when people leave the facet running while they’re doing dishes or brushing teeth. These things aren’t necessary because you can shut off the water in between cleaning to the same result. I can already tell I am going to annoy my family quite a bit with this information. =D
Well, these were just a few ways I found to keep our water consumption regulated, more information can be found on this site : How to Conserve Water and Use It Effectively
