30-Day Writing Plan: Day 10, Water


Usually, people don't think much about water, it's all around us. 60 percent of the adult body is made up of water. Water hydrates us, it cleanses us. Water is essential to how our body functions, without water, not only us, but all life ceases to exist. I feel many people think that water is abundant, 71 percent of this planet is covered with water after all. In actuality, only 2.5 percent of that water is fresh, drinkable water. How long until we no longer have safe drinkable water? At the rate of pollution at the moment, 25 years? 50 years? Who knows. All we know is that our water supply is finite. When the day arrives where our civilization uses up our water supply, it will ebb the end for us all. It's no longer just about ourselves, this is a fight to preserve our planet's water supply for the many generations after us. If each and every one of us does our part, keeping our water sources clean, lobby for change in the way we dump chemicals into our water, the world can change. It's all up to us.
