“When the well’s dry, we know the worth of water.” – Benjamin Franklin

Water is indeed a necessity. 70% of our brain is water. 96.5 of Earth is water. About 80-100 gallons are needed per person a day. What will happen if we ran out of water? What will happen to every single living organism on earth? will we be able to survive?

Far-flung areas like Davao city, are suffering from water crisis. Citizens of Davao are complaining about their inconsistent water supply. They can’t wash their clothes, take a bath or for some people who use tap water for drinking, won’t have enough water to drink. We need to help and save our water and not just wait for officials to do something.

Davao city needs at least 300 million of water a day. But we cannot waste water because we cannot extract too much water from the ground where they are currently getting water from. The official found new surface in which we can actually get water- the Tamugan River. But despite the new found source, we still need to conserve water. Turn off faucet while brushing your teeth as this is away of wasting water. Fill a tub or pail with water before or after bath. Always use shower, this can save a lot of water than using a bath tub.

We need to act fast. We need to act now or else Davao will not be the only place in our country, world rather, suffering from water crisis. Especially now that we’re suffering from climate change. We need to save water. We need to save the Earth. Not only for the time being but for the long run. The lives of billions of living organisms are at risk. The lives of the future generation are at risk. Our existence are at risk

“CONSERVE WATER, CONSERVE LIFE“

This is an example post, originally published as part of Blogging University. Enroll in one of our ten programs, and start your blog right.

You’re going to publish a post today. Don’t worry about how your blog looks. Don’t worry if you haven’t given it a name yet, or you’re feeling overwhelmed. Just click the “New Post” button, and tell us why you’re here.

Why do this?

• Because it gives new readers context. What are you about? Why should they read your blog?
• Because it will help you focus you own ideas about your blog and what you’d like to do with it.

The post can be short or long, a personal intro to your life or a bloggy mission statement, a manifesto for the future or a simple outline of your the types of things you hope to publish.

To help you get started, here are a few questions:

• Why are you blogging publicly, rather than keeping a personal journal?
• What topics do you think you’ll write about?
• Who would you love to connect with via your blog?
• If you blog successfully throughout the next year, what would you hope to have accomplished?

You’re not locked into any of this; one of the wonderful things about blogs is how they constantly evolve as we learn, grow, and interact with one another — but it’s good to know where and why you started, and articulating your goals may just give you a few other post ideas.

Can’t think how to get started? Just write the first thing that pops into your head. Anne Lamott, author of a book on writing we love, says that you need to give yourself permission to write a “crappy first draft”. Anne makes a great point — just start writing, and worry about editing it later.

When you’re ready to publish, give your post three to five tags that describe your blog’s focus — writing, photography, fiction, parenting, food, cars, movies, sports, whatever. These tags will help others who care about your topics find you in the Reader. Make sure one of the tags is “zerotohero,” so other new bloggers can find you, too.
