Ok well we are having a major drought happening here in Oz. Acording to the statistics if we dont get 3 solid days of rain over the catchments we will be running out of water within two years. Now thats a major thing to consider for us aussies. The Bush fire season has been brought forward two months to start in August seeing it is so dry out there, believe me there is heaps of bush around where I live to burn that hasnt burnt out for over 30 years.
Now I wanna try and list some water saving practices so that we can all do our bit to save water so we dont run out as fast.
Dont flush the toilet if it aint necessary..by necessary i mean if you do number 2's I think its necessary.
Dont wash your cars, hose your houses or concrete..they aint gonna grow and it aint gonna matter if your car is dirty on the outside.
Try and have shorter showers.. there is an ad on the radio asking people to put buskets in their showers to collect the water for gardens... there has to be a better way than that, perhaps put the plug in the bathtub if you have one of those showers on the bath or install a grey water tank in your house to collect water from washing.
Simple things like not having the tap running when you clean your teeth.
Anyone think of anything else??
Lets see if we can do our bit,
Cheers!
