You know, there is no new water on this planet. It has the same amount of water that it has always had. Every drop you drink has been drunk previously. and recycled.
True enough. But there is recycling, and then there is recycling. I recall a sign in a Sioux City men's room 50 years ago: Please flush. Omaha needs the water!
Our well water is superb. We always take a few gallons with us. Yet just two miles south of us the well water stinks, literally. And in that same area is a very small town with a water plant. It's often rust colored right out of the tap. It's so bad our fire department has to go to another town to fill the engines and tenders.
