This paper made me realize the importance of water conservation. After hearing all the hype about global warming and its fatal consequences, I always thought that it was more important to save than anything. But if you think about it, we might be able to survive from global warming a little bit longer if we had enough water. And the body can only last about three days without water, so if you think about that, thats how important conserving water is. Here in New York we take advantage the privilege we have of clean water and a lot of it. But what we don't realize is that one day the water will eventually run out. It seems unreal, but unfortunately it's true. Finding information on this topic was generally easy, as long as I searched my topic in a broad format. The topic was actually quite narrow, so I had to broaden out my searching words to find results successfully. The easiest part of my project was writing the essay. I had tons of information to use and found it easy to write clear arguments on New York's water and reasons why we need to conserve it. The hardest part of the project was probably finding all o the information to the citations. But, after a while I got the hang of where to find the author, etc. The most interesting part of what I found from my research was the ways of conserving water. I never knew there were so many surprising ways, and I think that if I didn't know about them, other people probably don't either, and we should encourage the spreading of this knowledge. In the future I plan on using as little water as possible in my home, and telling by friends the solutions I found across the internet. I'll try to volunteer at organizations that promote water conservation, and share the information I obtained during these few weeks with as many people as I can. The first step in conservation is knowledge of the issue, and I can definitely help with that.
