Some Tips to Save Water are given below.

» Economize; don′t use more water than is necessary.
» Ensure that all water outlets are closed properly after use.
» Avoid running water when shaving, brushing teeth and washing. Use mugs.
» Leaks in your home′s plumbing must be promptly attended to by sealing them. Get a plumber if necessary.
» Use taps fitted with aerators.
» Use a water-efficient washing machine.
» Avoid leaving water running when washing clothes,vessels,etc.Use buckets or basins if possible.
» Take showers, not long self-indulgent baths.
» Install small showerheads. You′ll still get sufficient water for a good shower.
» Wherever possible, recycle used water to water your garden or indoor plants.
» If you′re blessed with a garden, opt for drip irrigation to water your plants and revolving, mobile sprinklers for your lawn.
» Don′t throw away left over drinking water in bottles. Water some plants with it.
» If your toilets are fitted with old large capacity flush tank cisterns, place a plastic bottle filled with water inside. This will reduce the quantity of water used to flush the toilet.
» If you′re installing a new cistern, opt for the double flush one. This offers two options of low and high quantities of water needed to flush, depending on the need.
» If you′re installing new toilets, install composting toilets and dry urinals.
» Implement rainwater-harvesting techniques.
» Support and/or participate in public private partnership endeavors in water conservation projects.

	A dripping tap could waste as much as 90 litres a week. Brushing your teeth with the tap running wastes almost 9 litres a minute. Rinse out from a tumbler instead. Cool water kept in the fridge means you won't have to run the tap for ages to get a cold drink. Kettles should be filled with enough water for your needs but not to the brim. This will reduce your fuel bills too. Once a week is all the watering your lawn needs even in the hottest weather. Over- watering can weaken your lawn by encouraging roots to seek the surface. Purchasing a water butt will help you to collect rain water for use on the garden. Question your local garden centre about the water requirements of different plants. Some thrive in drier conditions. Use the dirty water when cleaning a fish tank on your houseplants. It's rich in nitrogen and phosphorus, which provides an excellent fertiliser.

Some great advice there, thank you for posting!:)

We Rajasthani already know the importance of water. In Rajasthan, we have faced droght many times in the past. In 1971 or so, 3 family members used to take bath from a bucket.

In my childhood, approx 40 years ago; my materal grandfather told us that in future the water will be sold in the bottles which we see right now.
