What to do when all the water is gone?

With global warming and environmental conservation on the rise, I'm drawn to the most precious commodity earth has: water. People all over the world suffer from a lack of sanitary water to drink and bathe in, and water treatment plants-even if they COULD provide all the water needed-are expensive to maintain. So my focus turns to the reality of the matter: we can't go on forever the way we live now, and I thought I might share with you a few suggestions of what to do with your pool when water becomes so scarce, we can no longer afford to enjoy our favorite summer activity of lounging in a cool private backyard pool.

1. Turn it into art. paint the whole thing and make it backyard art...or make one of those really cool 3d paintings in it to give the illusion that the pool isn't there... but make sure you warn your guests before they try to walk on it.

2. Become a sponsor of skateboarders with nowhere to go. What better use?? but make sure your first aid kit is handy

3. Make it into an obstacle course-bridges, ropes, climbing walls... the whole bit--fun for the whole family!

4. Turn it into your compost pile holder. This, however, isn't incredibly efficient because it would be hard to turn in order to avoid the stinky smell, but if you are going to throw trash in the pool, it might as well be compost trash that you can use to beautify the rest of your yard.

5. Turn it into the actual garden instead of just the compost. (This means you can't throw your trash in the pool). It will already be different levels without you having to change anything at all!

6. Fill the empty pool with sand and make a volleyball court. (Your ball wont get away as often this way, will it?)

7. Cover the top of the pool and turn it into a disaster/storm/nuclear war shelter. (You never can be too prepared.)

Yes, you may now rest easy with the burning question of whatever will you do with your empty swimming pool off your mind.
