Also, my advice to you would be to: 1) Learn more about where your water is coming to know if it’s produced in a sustainable way and 2) Limit your waste water (reusing boiling water, taking shorter shower, don’t leave the sink running) Conserving water is conserving our life 💧

Lastly, the project was more than just a summative assignment to me. I learned a lot about the value of water. This project gave me the chance to learn about a topic that affects a big part and that will, one day, affects us all if we don’t take the proper course of action today.

Secondly, I learned about the direct connection between water conversion and climate change. These two issues are so entangled that solving one means solving the other simultaneously. Tackle an issue like waste management means make oceans and fresh water banks cleaner.

Water conversation needs to become a priority for our governments. I think people in developed countries take this resource for granted . So, my research taught me that we can solve water shortage in creative ways. It’s just a matter of applying them in places that need them.

Firstly, the reoccurring piece of information is that water is undeniably the most important resource we have on this planet. The one stat that stuck with the most was this: 97% of the water on Earth is non drinkable. So, from the beginning, we are already at a disadvantage.

Now, I’m at the end of my summative project in P.E. and the biggest question that comes mind at the end of it is: What did I learn for seeing all of this information?
