What I’m doing:
-Using a rain barrel to collect rain from storms so I don’t wave to use any water from the hose when I water plants
-Walking or biking to many places to save energy
-Using resuable shopping bags for groceries
-Using those special flush toilets that save lost of water
-Recycling
-Using the blackle search engine instead of google to save energy

What are you doing to prevent climat change and to save the environment?

That all schools are all enviormenttally safe? I disagree!
They have flush toilets with water, non recyled toilet paper,
syrofoam trays,filthy gyms, litter all over in the woods and animals’ habitiats, rivers, lakes and oceans containing trash and sewage from the schools, food wasting, schools are not accepting enviormenttally safe clubs to help the enviorment, schools have a few recyling bins for certain types of trash like bottles and also sinks not have having water saving thingies. Please answer and thank you for helping the enviorment and the animals!

If we tallied up all the water we have stored, outside the water cycle, in the millions of places we hold it, dams, tanks, in toilets, car radiators, refrigerators, pipes, most of the products in our supermarkets, hot water systems, etc etc, the list would be huge. How much water in total would there be in these places? (how much water is in Coke cans at the moment?)

And, hypotheticaly, if all this water was returned to the water cycle, would it have any impact on the worlds current water crisis?
