Grammar & Revising

   I chose paragraph 3 to revise because after seeing the feedback and learning new grammatical techniques, I was able to apply this new found knowledge into the paragraph and I now think the paragraph flows much more effectively.

   Conserving is water probably one of the most important things to do because water is a crucial element in our lives. Recycled water is useful and beneficial in agriculture, landscape, toilet flushing, and also in artificial lakes. When a person brushes his teeth, he can choose to waste gallons of unused water by leaving the faucet on or instead, he can simply turn it off and use it sparingly. Recycling water not only "decreases the diversion of water from sensitive ecosystems," as explained on the US Environmental Protection Agency website, but it also reduces and prevents further pollution by being used for irrigation because the reusable water is rich in nutrients and safer than using synthetic fertilizers. It's amazing how one little drop of water can help in a big way.
