How To Conserve Water
Water is an essential for human life, but the balance between supply and demand is becoming a crucial issue. The amount of water we use, a waste, in day to day life has a direct impact on the environment.
Step 1: Shower Vs. Bath
A bath can use up to 100 litres of water! Where as a shower will only use a third of this amount. The maths is simply - take a shower and save that water.
Step 2: Running taps
Do not let your taps run when you are not using them. That includes cleaning your teeth, a whopping 5 litres a minute can be saved if you switch off while you brush
Step 3: Fix it
Are any of the taps in your house dripping? If so, fix them fast. This could save up to 140 litres a week. Have a look at VideoJugs films on fixing a dripping tap to see how to do this the right way.
Step 4: Washing machine
Running your washing machine when you only have a few items is a waste of energy as well as water. Use the economy setting or wait until you have enough to make a wash worth while
Step 5: Rainwater tank
If you have a garden invest in a rainwater tank. With hosepipe bans becoming the norm you will still have a supply of water to use on your garden without draining resources
