Ways to conserve water

Water conservation is the practice of using water efficiently to reduce unnecessary water usage. Water conservation is important because fresh clean water is a limited resource and mankind, animals, birds and all all life forms need water for survival. Some ways to conserve water and prevent wasting of water are:

1. Fix any leak in your toilet quickly. Check for leaks in water pipes both inside and outside the house.
2. Do not waste water by taking unnecessary long showers.
3. While brushing your teeth or shaving, turn off the tap when not in use.
4. Rinse your vegetables in a bowl instead of washing them in a running water tap.
5. Water your lawn only when it needs it and not as and when you want to.
6. Plant drought-resistant trees and plants. There are many beautiful trees and plants which thrive with less water.
7. Use efficient irrigation systems.
8. Children love to play under a hose or sprinkler on a hot day. But this practice is wasteful of precious water and should be discouraged.

Water is a finite resource. If not managed properly it will result in acute scarcity in the future. Let us conserve water for the preservation of human life and other life forms on Earth.
