Hydration

I felt quite sick and light headed this afternoon and then I realised it was probably because I hadnt drunk enough water. Especially as the weather is starting to warm up and everyone in senior school is doing exams we are all suddenly much more aware of the need to keep rehydrated.
Which leads me on very nicely to my next point about the appropriately named Tears of a cloud which is a lovely ironic look at our over reliance on bottled water. In some African countries bottled water is more expensive than petrol, and just think about how many plastic bottles of the wet stuff you will quite happily buy, and only drink half of, this summer. It is claimed that the next global war wil not be caused by the impending worlwide shortage of oil but because of water shortages and territory. Very handy thought for IB Geography and Environmental Systems especially as we look at the use and abuse of water as a resource.
A tug of the forlock to T. Cassidy and waterconserve for this.
