Nothing in the world is more flexible and yielding than water.

Yet when it attacks the firm and the strong, none can withstand it, because they have no way to change it.

So the flexible overcome the adamant, the yielding overcome the forceful. Everyone knows this, but no one can do it.

Water flows humbly to the lowest level.

Water Saving Tips in the Home !!!

Check for home for leaks, hidden water leaks can be wasting water without you even being aware of it.
A good way to check for leaks is, if your property is metered, then read your water meter and do not
use any water for a couple of hours and go back to check that the meter reads exactly the same. If it
does not, there is a leak.

Turn off tap while cleaning your teeth, shaving or washing your face. You can waste up to 9 litres
a minute by just letting the water pour down the sink.

Take a short shower rather than a bath could save you up to 400 litres a week. If you do have baths,
just half fill them.

Fix any dripping tap, you can waste 90 litres a week which will cost a lot more than what might just
be the price of a new washer.

Don’t overfill the kettle when making a cup of tea. Only fill and boil what you need, this will save
you money on your energy costs too.

Only use washing machine when you have a full load

Only use the washing machine and the dishwasher when you can put on a full load. It wastes both water
and energy to run only a half full machine.

Keep cool water in the fridge so that you do not need to run water down the sink to have a cold drink.

Fit water saving device in your cistern to save when flushing, this can save you 3 litres a flush.

Think before throwing used water down the drain, eg water in a pan after cooking, this could be reused
for watering plants around the house when cooled down, or in the garden.

Water Saving Tips in the Garden !!!

Use a broom and bucket of water to washing down patio

Use a broom and bucket of water for washing down the patio rather than a steady flow of water from the
hose.

Install a water butt in the garden to collect the rain water. This will mean you always have water to
use for watering the garden without the need to use fresh water from the hose.

Using mulch on the garden with help the soil retains water so will mean you won’t have to water the
garden as often.

Don’t overuse hoses or sprinklers in hot weather. A sprinkler can use as much water in an hour as a
family of four will use in a day. Your lawn only really needs watering once a week and it is better to
water in the morning when the temperature is lower and evaporation is less.

Research your plants, some actually thrive in drier conditions and will not benefit from over
watering.

Use a sponge and bucket of water to clean your car or if you use the hose, ensure you use a shut off
nozzle so the water is not constantly running.

Thanks Aryan for such a valuable post for all of us !!!

Regards

There are 7 billion people to feed on the planet today and another 2 billion are expected to join by 2050. Statistics say that each of us drinks from 2 to 4 litres of water every day, however most of the water we ‘drink’ is embedded in the food we eat: producing 1 kilo of beef for example consumes 15,000 litres of water while 1 kilo of wheat ’drinks up’ 1,500 litres.

When a billion people in the world already live in chronic hunger and water resources are under pressure we cannot pretend the problem is ‘elsewhere’. Coping with population growth and ensuring access to nutritious food to everyone call for a series of actions we can all help with:
follow a healthier, sustainable diet;
consume less water-intensive products;
reduce the scandalous food wastage: 30% of the food produced worldwide is never eaten and the water used to produce it is definitively lost!
produce more food, of better quality, with less water.

At all steps of the supply chain, from producers to consumers, actions can be taken to save water and ensure food for all.

Sense of danger is a gift of Mother Nature that has helped sustaining life in this hitherto most Unique Planet in the Universe. Not only we, the Human Beings, must sharpen this skill further but also must transmit the importance of such skill to our next generation so that the Unique Planet remains Unique in ages to come.

Ankur Ji for the important points about how to save water, and

Onam and Shweta for the links shared.
