Nothing Grows
Without Water
Why Eco,
Why Now?
For as long as most of us can remember, we have been intrinsically drawn to water. Like children who peer into a pond to marvel at their own reflection, catch raindrops on their tongue or play in the ocean’s surf on a summer afternoon, we all seem to have an innate connection to water’s life-sustaining flow.
Access to clean, renewable water sources is critical to people, plants and animals around the globe and quintessential for the preservation of all life on earth. The global water crisis due to climate change is gaining momentum each day and has reached critical levels in many countries, including Mexico.

8 Billion People
The Earth is currently home to eight billion people, most of them existing as consumers using up natural resources without ever replenishing them. What happens when the well literally runs dry? The fact remains: Humans can’t live without water, air or food. If our resources are limited or too polluted to use, what is plan B? We can choose to wait and see or we can take steps now to protect our resources so that our children can enjoy the same quality of life or better.
