Gardening Water Wisdom: Save Water, the Environment, and Money! This presentation explains the water cycle on earth – both the natural cycle and the human cycle—and then reviews the local (Massachusetts) impact of climate change on both drought and precipitation. It presents the reasons why, as gardeners and environmental stewards, we need to start adapting to these climate variations to preserve and protect the quantity and quality of our natural resources. The second half of the presentation covers many practical and effective ways of being “Water Smart” to reduce water consumption, improve the environment, and maintain a healthy, productive garden.
