Water Saving tips

• Instead of a running tap, fill your kitchen sink with water when washing dishes or raw food.
• When washing the kitchen floor, use a mop and bucket instead of a hose.
• Check your water bills to monitor your family’s monthly consumption. If your consumption is more than the average, review your family’s water usage habits.
• Repair leaks and dripping taps immediately to prevent water wastage.

Water saving tips

Question 1) why is water important to us?

Water is important to us as we need it for daily uses, like drinking, bathing, watering, washing. If the world is deprived of water, humans die, animals die, plants can't survive.

Question 2)why are we urgently trying to save water?
Even though water covers 70.9% of Earth's surface, most of it are salt water. Thus natural pure water is hard to obtain.

Tips to conserve water:
- Check toilets for leaks. 
-When brushing your teeth, do not leave the water running.
-Do not leave the taps open when washing dishes.
-Rainwater harvesting.
-Do not flush unnecessarily.
-Promote water conservation in public to let people know too :).

Benefits from saving water:
-save electricity bills and don't have to be scolded by your mum xD.

DO NOT USE WATER UNNECESSARILY[ESPECIALLY PLAYING WITH WATER, WANT PLAY GO SWIMMING POOL PLAY]

Water Saving~ Part 3

How is water used in YOUR home?

	Running water while you wash your face or brush your teeth.
	Running a washer or dishwasher that didn't have a full load.

Other ways to save water~

Fix leaky things like faucets and toilets.  About 20% of all toilets leak.  Toilets are the biggest user of water in the house.When you brush your teeth, turn off the water.  Turn it on only when rinsing.Reasons why YOU should save water:Conserving water can also extend the life of your septic system by reducing soil saturation, and reducing any pollution due to leaks. Overloading municipal sewer systems can also cause untreated sewage to flow to lakes and rivers. The smaller the amount of water flowing through these systems, the lower the likelihood of pollution. In some communities, costly sewage system expansion has been avoided by communitywide household water conservation. Have Fun Conserving~

Another way to save water is to take a 5 to 10 minutes shower instead of an hour long bubble bath . Bubble baths would waste alot of water filling the bathtub while shower takes much lesser water as you use the water only when you need to .
