It's me ... Shirley from the Green Team.
We should save money on water, it means like we should not waste a huge amount of money on water. We should use water conservatively and wisely. Because water resources are actually limited and it depends on us how to conserve it for the future. Humans can live 40 days without food, but only 3 days without water. So, HOW to save money on water from a kid's opinion like me?
Remember to turn off the tap water:
It's important to always remember to turn off taps tightly after using it. Especially when you brush your teeth, turn off the tap. You can save about 8 gallons of water a day if you brush your teeth twice a day.
Fix the water leaks:
If there's a water leak somewhere in the house, you should immediately send someone to fix it. Water leaks can happen in the toilet, taps, pipes etc. Do you know that a tap that drips water per second can waste 33 liter of water in a day!
Wash a lot of clothes immediately:
Wait until you have many clothes to wash before you take them to the laundry. Washing a lot of clothes immediately when you are doing the laundry will decrease the use of water at your house from time to time.
Rain water is free:
In rainy seasons, collect the rain water in some buckets. It's free and you can use it for so many things, like: watering your plants, washing your vehicles, flushing your toilets. etc.
Finish your drink:
Always finish your drink so that you don't waste the drinking water to the sink.
Pour the water to the garden:
When you have finished washing vegetables, fruits, etc, don't throw the water to the sink. But bring it out to the garden and you can pour the water on the soil there.
Thank you for reading.
