This is book number 11 in the author's Casual Discussion series. When we say "water is life," we don't mean just for drinking, cooking, and cleanliness. The author uses stories rather than research studies and statistical data because they show the human side of water use. We are responsible for future generations so they will be able to tell stories of their own that will make them smile. In that way, we shine our individual lights in the world and set examples of goodness.
