I wrote this in the other blog (effectively killing it–lol), but I think it’s worth repeating it…
On average 5 gallons of (US) tap water costs 1 penny. FUJI water (just one example) will deliver the same 5 gallons of water to your home for about $56 bucks.
You do the math.
How do I put a picture on my name for the blog posts???
My father would be pleased…today is his birthday. If I recall, he preferrred his wather from a garden hose.
Did you see this video made by Good Magazine for World Water Day that re-imagines what those old Crocodile Mile commercials would have been like if they had been made in a third world country?
I am thankful that many who would never get to drink clean water are drinking it because Jesus inspired someone to help others with “World Water Day 2009”
