Killing us slowly

http://www.unep.org/OurPlanet/imgversn/83/foster.html

Water...we all need it, we all use it, hell, we're all made of it...but 95% of our fresh water supply is in serious danger of being blasted from existance through overuseage and massive pollution. Underground water, being out of sight, is also out of mind for many of us, yet used by almost everyone. During dry seasons it's the ground water that sustains crops, the ground water that flows through our pipes. Yet now during all seasons it is the ground water leeching pesticides from our fields, the ground water being drained past the point of replenishment. Just thumb through your book, find the recepies and formula that use "water" in any amount, and start calculating what spices to use to drown out that DDT aftertaste.

Very interesting topic... I also believe that we have to be more concious about how much water that we use. Like you said "out of sight out of mind." We do not really know how much water is left.
