I think it really brings the point home and serves as a reminder to use to be conservative when it comes to the Earth's resources. It always remind us that not everyone has easy access to clean, safe water - at least it does for me. I love it!

That piece was done four or five years ago, and I might approach it a little differently now. However, I do love the irony in the image, which I think can be fun, silly and alarming all at once. Now, I'm off to your post. Thanks for taking the time to comment, Michael. You make a good point. That piece was done four or five years ago, and I might approach it a little differently now.

And its a cool and creative re-mix you've done! I worry though that your story remains in the camp of moralistic fear mongering that will only speak to the converted. As a business and cultural storyteller myself, I think we need to learn how to tell kinds of story, that don't reject the existing state, despite our desire for major transformation change.
