Mayor Bloomberg let's save our precious potable water and ban the use of hoses to clean sidewalks in New York City. Let's set an an example to the world of the responsible use of a finite resource, potable water.
Why is this important?
The worlds potable water supply s a finite resource. Each morning in Manhattan building maintenance people use water to clean their side walks. They use the water for the force the hoses generates not for sanitary reasons, Instead thy could use a broom, for example. It is a wasteful, arrogant, and an ignorant use of a precious resource. There are over 1 billion people who cant get safe drrinking water and wasting a resource in this way is unconscionable
