Agreed! Water is essential for everyone and we are wasting tons of it. Lots of us not even knowing! We recently had a person from our water company come to our home and tell us we were using too much water. Turns out we had a toilet constantly running.

As the article stated, not much can be done now that Joe Arpaio has been pardoned. I do believe, however, that this dismissal ought to unify Arizona residents in the fight against racial profiling. Whether a victim of Arpaio's practices or not, he committed an unethical crime and is not only being "forgiven," but given the opportunity for a fresh start which does not follow the American justice system.

Reading about how much water it takes to produce food and how much of ends up being wasted in alarming. I recommend this article for anyone who has a topic that relates to this social issues at it provided in depth details on the matter.

It is a nuclear reactor being developed by TerraPower which is a startup energy company helped by the Bill and Melinda Foundation. While the author does seem to write from a unbiased perspective, they seem to support the development of this reactor.
