ppl say "when we lost somethg that we own, only that moment we'll realized how precious that 'thing' was to us". betul tak? usually, it applies to someone that we loved. in my situation, the 'thing' was a WATER.uuuh~ rili. the govt, the media, the industries hv owez play their parts to educate the public to utilize water wisely. n thz is the time where we've to play our part! aiih~ when it comes to changing a habit, *hoo* it was demanding!sgt susah.

here are some tips for saving water inside ur home.the least we can do.rite?
  • When washing dishes by hand, don't let the water run while rinsing. Fill one sink with wash water and the other with rinse water.

  • Run your washing machine only when they are full and you could save 1000 gallons a month.

  • Collect the water you use for rinsing produce and reuse it to water houseplants.

  • Time your shower to keep it under 5 minutes. You'll save up to 1000 gallons a month.

  • Don't use running water to thaw food.

  • When doing laundry, match the water level to the size of the load.

  • Teach your children to turn the faucets off tightly after each use.

  • Soak your pots and pans instead of letting the water run while you scrape them clean.

  • Turn off the water while you brush your teeth and save 4 gallons a minute. That's 200 gallons a week for a family of four.

  • Turn off the water while you shave and you can save more than 100 gallons a week.

  • If you accidentally drop ice cubes when filling your glass from the freezer, don't throw them in the sink. Drop them in a house plant instead.

  • To save water and time, consider washing your face or brushing your teeth while in the shower.

  • Keep a bucket in the shower to catch water as it warms up or runs. Use this water to flush toilets or water plants.

  • When you are washing your hands, don't let the water run while you lather.
