I live on the water, the largest fresh water supply in the world!
I promote conservation and education and have established water testing protocols for our water on the Trent Canal System which provides a 1200 mile loop around the Great Lakes and connects us to the Atlantic O.. People sooooo take it for granted in Ontario. Water is remarkable at cleaning itself up, but it can not keep up with what mankind is doing, regularly. The clip reminds us we are in denial, it is excellent. We have many small solutions. The problem is much bigger. We are in global trouble.
Keep spreading the word

This is a powerful and so well thought, as a wife and mother, I am always screaming to save water, but I never thought the importance of how many other creatures are also in need of the most precious gift. This video should be show in the middle of the down town and stop the stock maker. It is short, precise, powerful and crosses cultures and ages.

I’ve just used this video to introduce the topic of water resources to a GCSE class of 30 pupils. They were completely transfixed, and the classroom discussion that followed was fantastic. One suggestion/requesy is for this video to be available to download so that it can be used as a classroom resource – many schools like ours can’t access YouTube, Twitter etc and so I am reliant on this link being always available.
Thanks for a great teaching resource.

Great, work and excellent use of 3D and music. Kept me interested. I agree, should make this a download-able Creative Commons video so folks can re-use in front of presentations etc…

Nice production with some pretty east to grasp illustrations of how what we eat impacts water. One quibble, for the solar panels & the wind turbine I did not see any water in the video (unless it was very very tiny). I believe the manufacture of the semiconductors that go into the solar panels require quite a bit of water, though it is possible depending upon the analysis that a “per energy unit” comparison (say per kW) makes the solar panels minuscule compared to fossil-based energy. Also, I find it hard to believe that in the component construction or final construction of a wind turbine no water is used.

Still a nice video.

I think this will be a powerful tool in the classroom. It would be helpful if this was provided as a downloadable file to teachers, professors, and practitioners. The Youtube links are great, but sometimes it is most useful to have as a file on your computer.
