Name something you have done to reduce consumption of water?
I put a brick in my toilet cistern! I now save a brick volume's worth of water ever time I flush the loo!
i installed a dual flush toilet in our home and i have talked a few customers into doing the same thing.
I use a low flow shower head, they have a nice benefit of increasing the water pressure to.
handwash clothes
reroute my laundry water into the garden
turn off the facuet when brushing my teeth, rinsing dishes, shaving my legs from a pail rather than the shower.......bailing my waste water to the garden.........
I am all about water conservation!
I replaced the washers in my tub spicket so it isn't leaking any longer. It's a simple task that most any home owner can perform on their own.
I stopped letting the water run while brushing my teeth.
I brush my teeth while I shower. I am not quite sure just how much water that saves, but I sincerely believe every drop counts right? I have also participated in 10 k marathons for "save water" projects in our city.
I take a shower once a week LOL j/k. I wash less laundry by combining non-fading colors with whites, rather than 2 small loads, I have now 1 regular sized load. Also, taking a shower with my wife. not sure how much water that saves, but it's more fun
i dont drink water,... as w. c. fields said, fish f**k in it,.... so i dont drink it.... i prefer rum on the side of my dr pepper on ice,... ice being the only acceptable form of water to drink.
I take a single bath a day and installed low water toilets.
