HOLD YOUR WATER offers insight into the water and world around us. Taking a conversational approach to conservation, it dives into simple ways that you can make a difference—all with a witty, and at times whimsical, slant on the world in which we live.
The Wyland Foundation is widely lauded by politicians and scientists alike for its practical insight and positive impact on our planet. Former Vice President Al Gore praised the group, saying, 'Your organization makes an invaluable contribution to the effort to promote environmental awareness.' HOLD YOUR WATER is the latest in the organisation's legacy of arming everyday people with straight-ahead insight and simple tips for keeping our planet blue. Written by two members of Wyland's staff, the book provides countless fascinating facts about our planet. The book offers easy ways for people to help preserve water and other related precious resources. Divided into more than 30 sections, this compendium illustrates how everyday activities such as car washing, showering, fertilizing—even 'pet poop' cleanup—can negatively impact the environment. It then delivers more than 100 tips and tidbits that will help you protect your planet.

Wyland is the world's premier marine life artist. Through sculpture, painting, photography, and education, Wyland encourages responsible stewardship of our world's oceans and marine life. His work includes eight previous books, more than 90 Whaling Wall murals, the nonprofit Wyland Foundation, and the Wyland Ocean Challenge, an arts and science curriculum intended to get children involved in saving our water. Wyland calls Laguna Beach, Calif., home.
