REFLECTION QUESTIONFresh Water Water-Friendly Beauty ProductsBeyond what does or doesn't come out of the tap at home, how do your choices affect freshwater locally and globally?
Timothy Brown 4/08/2020 6:37 AMLiving in a large metropolitan area, we waste vast amounts of water. Every little bit of conservation and thought before disposal can make a big difference in our "water footprint". I am much more aware of stormwater runoff having installed a rainwater barrel for my garden.-
