Word of the Week – Committed

We are in a time in history that requires a deep solid commitment to prepare for a future that will not look like our past. In the last two months, I have decisively witnessed the drought and food shortages already happening on the west coast. This will not get better any time soon. The U.S. Teeters on the Brink of a Great Water Crisis. Drought in the Western United States has dropped freshwater levels by 75%. And the need for water consumption by Agribusiness has not diminished. https://www.propublica.org/article/colorado-river-water-shortage-jay-famiglietti On average, farms around the world account for 70% of all water that is consumed annually. https://htt.io/water-usage-in-the-agricultural-industry/ As the water shortage becomes more acute. So will the food shortage. This is not a west Coast problem or a U.S. problem. This is a world problem. The only way to prepare for that future is by preparing our children to be ready, and able to take over the world we are leaving them. Bubble wrapping them and pretending everything is OK is not an option. Relying on our politicians, big business, and the school system to prepare your children is not an option. We are the only option our children have. As parents, we need to be committed to our children and demonstrate that we are the leaders we are meant to be, so our children will grow and become the leaders they need to be. Till next time “Be Safe” P.S. Find out just how well prepared you are. Take advantage of the disaster and emergency preparedness assessment: https://www.eapworkshop.com/f/dep-assessment
