We live on water tanks and depend heavily on the rain or we need to buy water. After having lived in cities where water is just wasted, I no longer can ignore the value of water for us here even though we are surrounded by ocean. Even with the land to extend our garden, we first need to consider our water supply for the summer before doing so. It is a shame, that more awareness isn’t spread globally about the inequality of access to this most vital resource and the scarcity of it in our future which demands that we begin preserving it now.
