Water: Waste Not, Want Not “We forget that the water cycle and the life cycle are one.”
- Jacques Cousteau As I was recently rinsing “dirty” dishes to put into my dishwasher, it suddenly hit me: The clean water effortlessly flowing from my faucet would be considered liquid gold by many people, especially in developing countries.
