water conservation

Type some text. There are many ways to conserve water through one's everyday lives. Just little things like the way you flush the toilet could save up to gallons of water per day.

Here are a few ways of water conserving I have gathered:

1. Check all faucets, pipes, and toilets periodically for leaks

2. Take shorter showers or take a bath

3. Don't use the toilet as a wastebasket

4. Turn off the water when you are brushing your teeth, shaving, etc.

5. Select proper water level for laundry

6. Don't let the water run when washing dishes

8. Defrost food in the refrigerator or the microwave

1. Try automatic irrigation systems

5. Don't let the water when washing the car

8. Plant more drought resisting plants

What if suddenly one day you wake up and find out that you are surrounded by desert, or if you find yourself in a house but with no running water? That is what it is like in some countries right now, because it didn't have enough fresh water lake to


help its citizens. One has to walk for miles on the burning hot ground to carry one or two buckets of water for his or her home. Although about two-thirds of the world is covered with salt water, but we are still lacking fresh drinking water, because many fresh water rivers or streams are being polluted by waste water from factories, gas from cars, even plastic bags that people throw into streams. It can be very hazardous to human.

How much water does a person use every day? Each person in the U. S. uses about 100 gallons (380 liters) of water every day on the average.

Water conservation is a critical need globally. Water from roofs should be diverted to containers so that it can be used as needed when it is not raining. Water from monsoons, in areas of the world where monsoons occur, should be diverted to lakes, perhaps even man-made lakes, to make the water available during drought or dry seasons.

Water for the yard can also be conserved by watering only during the cool of the day (to limit evaporation) and limiting the use to no more than one inch per time and only once per week. When washing your car, use a bucket and sponge when washing and use a shut-off nozzle on the hose when rinsing.

How much water is on the Earth? There are about 1.4 billion cubic kilometers (326 million cubic miles)

Where does the water go? About 70% evaporate into the air, 3.12% is used for industry, 2.46% is used for irrigation, 0.42% is used in cities, and the last 24% are unused precipitation that returned to the sea.
