World Water Day -- save water

Water is too precious and is one of important thing for any creature to live on the earth.so we need to save this precious item carefully.

Following are the precautions to save water

At work

*Don't forget to turn the tap off properly after washing your hands.

At home

* Fit insulation to water pipework - running taps waiting for them to get hot can waste a lot of water;
* If you have an older or larger cistern, save water during flushes by filling a plastic bottle or bag with water and carefully placing it in the cistern. NEVER place a brick in the cistern;
* Turn the tap off while you brush your teeth and rinse at the end with a mug of water. A family of four can save a bathful of water every third day this way;
* Take showers instead of baths. So, save time, water and energy by taking a shower;
* Rather than running tap water until it's cool, keep a bottle of cold water in your refrigerator;
* Wash vegetables in a bowl, not under a running tap. Soaking vegetables makes them easier to peel.
* Half-load programmes on dishwashers and washing machines use more than half the water and energy of a full load. Wait until you have a full load before switching the machine on;
* Check the label when buying new appliances to check they are water-efficient.

In the garden

* Rainwater is better for plants - collect it! Only use mains tap water as a last resort. Watch the weather forecast and save washing-up water for gardening on dry weekends;
* Water plants in the evening to avoid the water evaporating. Always use a watering can rather than a hose - you can measure more easily how much water each plant receives. A hosepipe left running for one hour will use as much water as most of us need during a whole week!
* Use a bucket to wash your car rather than a hose.
