An agent of Change: for a Better Yo Creek | Cayo Scoop!  The Ecology of Cayo Culture | Scoop.it

Yo Creek's Andrea Carillo submitted a good essay for Chaa Creek's Summer camp.

 

"Water is also very important to everyone.  Water is needed for us to live without it we all will die.  We all need water to drink, to wash dishes, to wash clothes, to cook and to bathe.  So as an Eco kid I will help conserve water since it is very valuable.  I have observed that a lot of Belizeans like to buy and eat Chinese foods like: chowmein, chop suey, fried rice and soups.  Usually when these foods are cooked a lot of water is used for the boiling of vegetables and water is wasted in this way.  I have seen my mother using other methods to cook these same foods and not wasting so much water as others do.  As an eco kid I will share the method my mom uses to cook and not wasting the valuable water."
