Water (Ab)Use

As a good little environmentalist I was brought up knowing that wasting water was a very bad thing. My mom even had a song she sang with the lyrics "you are wasting water, water, running down the drain." It was very catchy and has stuck with me through life. With this little tune in my head as I conscientiously turn off the tap while I brush my teeth, I was pretty certain I was using very little water in my daily life.

This video changed that for me and made me realize how wasteful we are with water as an American culture. The global water crisis is very real and needs urgent attention. I urge you to watch this clip and benefit from a little reality check.
