It is important to understand that life cannot exist without water. Water is essential for our bodies to function, crops to grow, and the connection between the two prominent celestial objects in the Earth’s sky, the sun & moon to regulate the climate. It is even more important to eliminate pollutants to our precious water sources on Earth. As individuals we can take extra steps to leave this planet better for future generations.

It seems entirely overwhelming, that an individual could make a change to the massive issue of pollutants in our water sources, but don’t get discouraged here are some basic things you can do to help keep our ocean clean, our lakes and rivers clear and our drinking water fresh.

If you are lucky enough to live next to the ocean you have a great opportunity to enjoy the amazing scenery while taking a lovely walk collecting trash along the way. Every piece of plastic you eliminate makes a significate difference to improve our oceans and preserve our wildlife. In just a short period of time you will be amazed on how much trash you can collect, and the satisfaction you have dropping it in the trash container when you are finished. It is even more satisfying when others notice your efforts and compliment you on your desire to maintain a healthy place for others to enjoy.
