A few decades ago, many people didn't drink water outside of a meal. Then beverage companies started bottling the production of far-off springs, and now office workers unthinkingly sip bottled water all day long.
Since I was little, it was instilled in me to conserve water. In terms of what can you do as an individual, it's an easy issue to get behind.
My secret is one the world needs to know - nearly a billion people a year die from unsafe drinking water.
I need to think about 'Make sure you drink your water.' That's the kind of person I am.

Water's never clumsy.
