Water Conservation: Small Changes that Make a Big Difference

August 12, 20231 min read

Small daily habits in how we use water can lead to meaningful conservation. Here are simple tips everyone can adopt:

  • Take shorter showers by minutes

  • Turn off taps while brushing teeth, washing dishes, shaving.

  • Fix leaks immediately, they waste hundreds of gallons over time.

  • Install low-flow shower heads and faucet aerators.

  • Run full loads in dishwasher and washing machine.

  • Choose drought-resistant native plants for landscaping.

  • Sweep driveways instead of hosing them down.

  • Collect cold water running before it's hot. Use it for plants.

  • Limit car washing, or go to a facility that recycles water.

Being mindful of excess water going down drains or onto the ground makes a difference. Our daily use adds up to major savings. Conserving water ensures more remains available for essential needs, while reducing your utility bills too. Protect this precious shared resource by adopting water-wise habits at home. Small changes drive big impact.
