Conserving water
Conserving water:
Install a water-saving toilet or place a full bottle of water or a
brick in the tank to displace water volume (and thereby conserve) water.
Install a low-flow showerhead and aerators on faucets
Take shorter showers
Don't let the water run while brushing teeth or hand-washing dishes
Only use the dishwasher or clothes washer when there is a full load
Fix leaking faucets
Water your lawn and garden in the morning or at night
Wash your car with a bucket and pail instead of a garden hose
Collect rainwater in a barrel for watering plants
