After a short summer break, Rama and Tony are back with you with a new episode on this episode of the topic of “Water”. Listen to them as they discuss the different effects of water on us as humans. They discuss the many ways water has been used in different analogies attempting to describe the human experience. How does water feature in Christianity and Islam? What do stoics and mystics say about it? And of course, how does water feature in Shakespeare’s writing, especially Hamlet? How much water are we using for our different purposes and how does water scarcity threaten to affect us?    Becoming the Ocean by Khalil Gibran https://bradwcarr.medium.com/becoming-the-ocean-fb17376975ad    Stoicism on Water https://www.beststoicquotes.com/blog/on-digging-deep   Global market for bottled water https://www.statista.com/outlook/cmo/non-alcoholic-drinks/bottled-water/worldwide#revenue   Top 10 countries with freshwater resources https://www.jagranjosh.com/general-knowledge/top-10-countries-with-freshwater-resources-1537440475-1   Industries that consume most fresh water https://2030.builders/world-water-day/   “Water” by Ralph Waldo Emerson https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/52342/water-56d230b9c3194   Types of water use: https://watercycle.byu.edu/blue-green-and-gray-water-use#:~:text=Blue%20Water%20deals%20with%20human,quality%20issues%20or%20excessive%20heat.   How much water does it take to make a pair of Jeans? https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0ckr93c   If you have any ideas, suggestions or feedback, please send us an email at:  wordsthatmakeus@gmail.com
