| You need not be an environmental activist to contribute your bit to guard the blue gold. Here are some small tips that can help: - | |
|
|
You waste up to 7 litres of water when you leave the tap open to brush your teeth. |
|
|
Use a mug or a tumbler to shave, brush or wash your face. |
|
|
You use to 50-100 litres of water every time you wash your car. Avoid doing so every time. Give your car a sponge bath and if possible use a bucket instead of a hosepipe to wash the vehicle. |
|
|
Use a watering can to water the plants. |
|
|
Reuse the water you use to wash the vegetables in. |
|
|
Toilets require 7 to 10 litres of water for flushing every time. |
|
|
Use flushing systems that allow you to control the amount of water you flush. |
|
|
Fix all the leaking taps at once and close any tap you find open, even though it might be a roadside one. Plant a tree. |
|
|
Trees help conserve water. Use recycled stationery. Consume less paper. Paper is made from felled trees. |
|
|
Be aware and care for the environment .The problem is ours and not somebody else's. |
