 | Fix dripping taps. One drip per
second wastes 14 litres per day. |
 | Don't use a running tap to wash
dishes or vegetables. In 5 minutes a running tap can fill a
small bath. Use a bowl instead. |
 | Take a shower instead of a bath. |
 | When brushing your teeth, don't
let the tap run continuously. |
 | Use a water saving device in the
toilet cistern - a plastic bottle full of water will do.
This can reduce water use by up to 30%. |
 | Use a bucket rather than a
hosepipe to wash your car. |
 | Use a water butt to collect
rainfall for watering the garden. |
 | Use a watering can instead of a
garden sprinkler. |
 | Use mulches or groundcover to
hold moisture in the soil. |
