Eye opening and sobering. Cape Town South Africa. The first modern city in history to ever face this drastic of a water shortage now faces a 6.5 (six and a half) gallon per day, per person limit. Think about how much water we all use in modern life. These former residents of Cape Town living in Atlanta Georgia tried it in solidarity with their former home.
As some of you may know, Cape Town is my fiance's home and my second home now. Our family and friends there are faced with this. And here's something to think about: This can happen anywhere as droughts become more severe in already arid regions just like Southern California.
