Today the city of Athens, Ga. is facing a water shortage unlike any we have seen here in the Tampa area. It is projected Athens will be completely without water by mid-December. Atlanta is also running low and projected to run out of water by next year some time. These examples show why it is so important to conserve water whenever possible.
The Tampa area is doing OK so far this year, but the dry season is upon us and we already have low water reserves. Conserve water now. Let's not become another Athens.
