Proper Water Conservation

Our windows are steamed up. It is 70 degrees outside this morning and because of the high water content on this part of the planet we see this moisture.
I have talked to people about how the city fathers want you to conserve the water in your city. In truth you should have a pool in your backyard. Do you hear what is happening to the rain forest in South America. They are burning them, that is a good way to become a desert. My best examples of what to do what is right for the planet are Israel and Las Vegas. They use water, they hold water in basins (reservoirs), they have swimming pools.
Trees in the Amazon (South America) hold water, swimming pools in Las Vegas hold water, Israel uses water to irrigate their plants.
When you have water under mulch, in pools, with misters, drip waterers, Amazon forests and reservoirs the water vapor rises to the clouds and stays in the area, when you burn the earth ash consumes the water plus you lose the ability to store water in trees and mulched landscapes.
It is nice to create machines that use less water as in toilets but do we really need a shower that only dampen your dreams. I removed all the strainers out of our shower, we shower with a full head of water which goes down the drain and into the earth where it is held until it evaporates and rises to water someones else's garden.
