In mid-January, Cape Town officials announced that the world-class South African city of four million residents would run out of water on April 12. The date, nicknamed “Day Zero,” has since been postponed multiple times, thanks to the intense conservation efforts by locals, a sharp reduction in agricultural water usage, and a 10 billion-liter donation from the private reservoirs of the Groenland Farmers Association. The city now has enough water to sustain the current level of usage until July 9, giving residents hope that the rainy season, which begins in June, will be more regular than has been the case lately.

          Everybody save this town and all others from their misery! We all need to be aware of how much water we are all INDIVIDUALLY using! Just because your family may use very little water, doesn't mean that you can use more. We need to cut down on our water uses. Once one person makes others aware of what is going on, they will want to warn others too. Make sure though that you give whoever you are talking to evidence that this is true. MAKE A DIFFERENCE!!!!!!!!!!!! AVOID DAY ZERO!!!!!!!!!!!!
