1. Water your lawn only when it needs it. Step on your grass. If it springs back, when you lift your foot, it doesn't need water. So set your sprinklers for more days in between watering. Saves 750-1,500 gallons per month. Better yet, especially in times of drought, water with a hose.

2. Fix leaky faucets and plumbing joints. Saves 20 gallons per day for every leak stopped.

3. Don't run the hose while washing your car. Use a bucket of water and a quick hose rinse at the end. Saves 150 gallons each time. For a two-car family that's up to 1,200 gallons a month.

4. Install water-saving shower heads or flow restrictors. Saves 500 to 800 gallons per month.

5. Run only full loads in the washing machine and dishwasher. Saves 300 to 800 gallons per month.

6. Shorten your showers. Even a one or two minute reduction can save up to 700 gallons per month.

7. Use a broom instead of a hose to clean driveways and sidewalks. Saves 150 gallons or more each time. At once a week, that's more than 600 gallons a month.

8. Don't use your toilet as an ashtray or wastebasket. Saves 400 to 600 gallons per month.

9. Capture tap water. While you wait for hot water to come down the pipes, catch the flow in a watering can to use later on house plants or your garden. Saves 200 to 300 gallons per month.

10. Don't water the sidewalks, driveway or gutter. Adjust your sprinklers so that water lands on your lawn or garden where it belongs--and only there. Saves 500 gallons per month.

Importance of Conserving Water
Water is very important to conserve because, lakes, sailors, springs, wetlands, moss, plants, fish, and trees need it. Also many people would like to have crusies once in a while and without water we would have cruises or any other water transportations. Plus if you use too much underground water it will be most likely your house would be destroyed by huge sinkholes. It will also spread to a couple of other houses, next door or around. Our food chain will also change without water fish would die, and some islands, or even countries who relies on fish to live will eventually the people will die of starvation, without water people will also die of thirst. Hamburgers, Steaks and other meat product are wasting about 1,000 gallons of water, to raise and feed them. Cow's drink about 200 gallons of water in their lifetime but what about the grass? It takes lots of water to fernish the grass. You wouldn't want to pay large amount of water bills either. So thats why you need to conserve water.

Have U seen the movie about The Colorado River? It is very good. We saw it at The Onimax Theater in Cincinnati Ohio. Don't know where else it is playing, but this movie would really help U with ideas. We learned a lot about our country's water tables and the environment. Very educational.
