I watched an info-clip of Idol Gives Back that had Jennifer Connely drawing water from a stagnant stream and bringing it home to have her 'screen children' drink. Just like the other info-clips of AI Gives Back, this pinched the heart. Aside from aiding parts f the world with water purifying systems and irrigation techniques, people at home must do their part in lessening water wastage.
Make it a family practice to do some water saving efforts:
Re-use water for cleaning or watering plants or cleaning tires of the car or clearing the driveway.
Be conscious of leaks and fix them. You not only save water but dollars on your water bill.
Never throw non-biodegradable material in the toilet (tissue and the like), it will take more water to flush.
Set your shower on a low setting, take a thorough bath. For HOT days, take quick showers if you have to shower more than 3 times a day because of the heat.
Never let water run while soaping, brushing, shaving or scrubbing. Have a glass of water beside you when brushing your teeth. Have several dippers available for cleaning purposes, you get to use water sparingly and lessen waste.
When done collectively, results will be beyond we imagine and there will be a more pleasant and lush Earth to expect in the future. These are easy things to do for the family, every drop we save is hope for the future generation.
