Sunday Science Snippet

Today I give you the story behind Waterproof and what you can do to help conserve water.




1 billion people currently don’t have access to clean drinking water.

3.4 million people die from water related diseases each year.












  1. Fallon Vaughn - great post, loved the fact something so real and troubling inspired Waterproof and now you can use it as a platform to inform fans of this need to conserve. I will try to apply all I can.

  2. Thanks Fallon! I definitely think about this every time I brush my teeth or take a shower! :)

  3. Your post is fascinating, as is the book. Water management will be an increasingly complex resource that will be critical to manage. I use a barrel to collect rain for my garden. Yet, in some states this practice is not legal because water rights mandate that water flow unfettered.

    1. That's right, Gayle. It's hard to imagine a world without "free" water, but without proper managment and conservation...we could face this with our lifetime - and that's scary!
