related issues are deeper than a critically worsening shortage. Not only are we running out of water, but we’re simultaneously turning our limited water supply into poison. Every day, millions of tons of toxic effluents drain into the world’s water bodies.

The solutions are simpler than we realise, but they require all of us to be consciously engaged. Every choice we make of what to purchase, what to wear, and what to eat has a direct and powerful impact upon climate change, upon children dying of starvation, and upon the health and balance of the water, air and land of Mother Earth.

For example, the meat industry is, according to the UN, the single greatest contributor to climate change, and a major cause of the planet’s water shortage.
