In the distance, the old man suddenly saw a blur of the red, tousled hair of a small child clad only in swimming trunks and frantically running toward him. As the child was running he was reaching down and gathering up as many starfish as he could and throwing them way out in to the water with a multitude of splashes as they landed in to the sea. The old man, became irritated and angry with the energetic young boy. Surprisingly, the little boy ran right past the old man and never even stopped to gather a breath. As he quickly ran past, he said something that warmed and stirred the old man's heart.
Water is one of our greatest and most important natural resources.
Some authorities believe that we will run out of safe, clean drinking water long before we will run out of our existing food supplies. Each year there are more and more people living on the earth but, the amount of water available to us remains the same from day to day. It is estimated that two thirds of the water that covers the earth is comprised of the oceans. Therefore, it is a known fact that most of the water that is available is not even drinkable. In providing this information web site it is our mission to provide an interesting meeting place for people of all ages and from all walks of life.
