Flow


Stop drinking bottled water!

Why do we assume that bottled water is healthier, cleaner and better than tap water? Do you have any idea where bottled water actually comes from?

We are in the midst of a huge water crisis - whether you are actually feeling the affects yet or not - the problem exists. The City of Dublin will run out of its fresh water supply in 2016, the state of California faces the same fate in 2020. It IS happening, and it will continue to happen - our fresh water supply is dwindling and we all know that humans cannot survive without this.

In America, we are so fortunate to have fresh water that we often take it for granted. While we are carelessly consuming this natural resource there are millions of people that do not have access to clean water - people that struggle everday to find fresh water for drinking, cooking, washing - people who have no choice but to drink from a dirty stream. Though we will never truly understand the difficulties these people face, we can and should be aware of how our actions affect people globally.

Please watch the movie FLOW, it will open your eyes as it opened mine!
