We are a group of undergraduates at the University of Washington with varied majors, but we created this video with hopes of inspiring others to increase their awareness about the water they consume every day!
Special shout out to our Professor Karen Litfin (go check her out–she’s written a lot of cool books, too!), and her course Political Science 301: Anthropocene Politics.
If you’re interested in learning more about virtual water, your personal water footprint, or what you can do to have less of an environmental impact, check out some of these sites below!
Cheers and happy investigating!! xoxo
