World Water day is ONE WEEK AWAY! What will you do to support Mother Nature and her water sources in your community? Ideas:

🌊 Clean up garbage from the beach, parks, streets, etc.
🌊 Conserve the amount of water you use when showering, doing dishes, etc.
🌊 Remind others of World Water Day by making a post, speaking about it at work / school / events
🌊 Get involved with a local committee for keeping water clean in your area

10 years ago we did a SPLASH MOB on Kal Lake to raise awareness about the ongoing threat of invasive mussels in the lake. Should we do it again? Would you be interested in participating?
