I agree with you on this, too much hypocrisy is on display and you will find it easily in sports and politics. People often complain about this issue but act differently when it is time to act.  

All this can be catered for in the development of the curriculum, which I believe should be prepared  not just by educators but also captains of various sectors of the economy. Education has to be tailored to meet the needs to the immediate society and by extension the global community at large. 

We can't over emphasize the importance of preserving our water, because it affects us all irrespective of the geographical location. Thank you Jill Heinerth.
