Save the Water

Filed in: Water Conservation

Hi Ashley,

Someone recently posed the question to me. "Why do we need to save water anyway?" This may seem like a ridiculous question - but I really didn’t know how to answer that question! His argument was that the glaciers are going to melt whether we use the water or not. It’s not like we are ‘bottling’ it and saving it for a time when we will need it. I understand the glaciers are going to keep on melting so how does our water use and consumption make a difference?

Sincerely,
Heather
