Answers
Answer:
Water should be reused. For example the water used for washing clothes should be used again. Less water should be used while in toilets, brushing and bathing. Do not keep the tap open while brushing. Do not keep the water of toilet open. By avoiding one flush a person can save about 17 litres of water daily. Only use the flush in the end. Water used to wash clothes and utensils can be used to water plants for gardening.
Explanation:
These uses ordinarily include drinking, personal sanitation, washing of clothes, food preparation and personal and household hygiene. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), between 50 and 100 litres of water per person per day are needed to ensure that most basic needs are met and few health concerns arise.
