Today is World Water Day. Please take a little time to think about your relationship with your water resources today, something that most of us take for granted. Consider how you can use water wisely and how you can help others with their water problems.
Do you regularly eat foods whose farming is disproportionately-polluting? Do you know where your run-off goes? Are you contributing to others’ water hardships? Is your car dripping oil or your spigot dripping water? Does your lawn require a lot of water or fertilizers?
I have a lot to change in my life to shrink my environmental footprint. Perhaps you do, too. Today is a good day to think of new ways to continue that work. Water is a critical issue for a very large portion of the world’s population, and the seemingly-little things we do are not so little if we all do them.
