Conserving water is a must. We need water to do most of our living. We really don't think about water when we wash our hands, taking a shower, or even watering our lawn.

Agreed! Water is essential for everyone and we are wasting tons of it. Lots of us not even knowing!

I can't imagine how a farmer feels. The colorado river needs a dramatic change.
