Using Water Safely and Wisely

My friend, Boon, was an environmentalist who championed the three Rs: Reduce, Reuse and Recycle. Naturally, he has tried to educate his friends and family on the importance of protecting our water resources and how to save and clean water and most importantly make sure there is no water wastage. He said that if everyone does his part, we will have a better environment.

Boon has since passed away but he has instilled these values in me as I continue to look for ways that I can use water and other natural resources wisely.

The website, Friends of Water, at www.friendsofwater.com has also helped me tremendously in my quest to be a better water consumer. This site has a lot of information and tips to clean and save water. It also has articles on health risks caused by water, like the fluoride risks towards infants which cause tooth damage when fluoridated water is mixed into baby foods and formula.

Friends of Water also has a Friends of Water store where they carry water products that are designed to celebrate, clean and save water.

It's great that we could subscribe to their free ezine and have it delivered to our inbox as some of us may be too busy to check the website regularly for the latest updates. I feel that everyone should take full advantage of this wealth of information. It is our duty to protect out environment for our future generations.
