Great video - 12 minutes long with a lot of information in.

Great video to show students the importance of water conservation. For American students, the metric system might confuse them when it comes to understanding the volumes of water. I liked how it went through someone's daily meal and explained how much water it took to grow the food. This is something most people don't think about and it would be helpful to realize.
