WATER // by GOOD

As it snows like CRAZY here in the Northeast US of A, we thought it would be a good idea to reblog this video from the good folks over at…ummm..GOOD.

One of our biggest repsonsibilities to the world, nature, and humanity is to preserve and insure that we keep our water clean.  And we’ve been failing at it forever.  These are abstract terms I know, but in all honesty when you watch this video and realize that we waste more drinking water in a day then most towns have access to in years the irresponsibility is painful.

So drink to your health and use water wisely.  Don’t pollute either!  Thank you.
