SAVE THE PLANET, ONE DROP AT A TIME!

April 22, 2016

Head’s up! You’ve been invited to a party for the planet happening worldwide on April 22 and throughout the week locally.

The heart of the party is the choicest beverage in the world – fresh, clean drinking water, which makes up less than 1% of the planet’s water.

No matter how you choose to celebrate Earth Day, fresh drinking water makes it possible.

Earth-Day-2016-Poster-Earth-Day-NetworkThe goal of this year’s Earth Day is to plant 7.8 billion trees worldwide. Not only do trees provide clear air and remove COfrom the atmosphere, but the right tree planted in the right place can help reduce outdoor water use and improve water quality.

Join Water – Use It Wisely this week in celebrating Earth Day – and conserving the water that helps the planet go round.
