Earmark $3 per .TV Domain Sold to Tuvalu Water Conservation Efforts
The Issue
With no rivers or streams the islands of Tuvalu are dependent on rain water. Currently, the absence of rain has Tuvalu in a fresh water crises. While efforts are underway to desalinize sea water, conservation of fresh water is critical to the sustainable use of this priceless natural resource.
-Old Flush Toilets waste the most fresh water. Funds are needed to install 'Low Flow' toilets.
-Alternatively, fund a study into the feasibility of recycling 'grey water' as well as sourcing sea water for toilet use.
-A public outreach multimedia Water Conservation Campaign needs to be produced.
With Verisign dotTV branding on these initiatives their 'donation' is a small investment towards winning the hearts & minds of Tuvaluans, as well as renewal of the multi million dollar dotTV contract VeriSign currently has to administer Tuvalu's .TV internet domain extension.
