Guest guest Posted April 20, 2010 Report Share Posted April 20, 2010 How to conserve water Did you know? Avoiding wastage of water directly by sealing leakages, more consciousness during consumption or usage of water directly are not the only possible ways to conserve water - Avoiding wastage of everything results in water saving. Apparently - when we think of water usage we usually think of only the water we use from our taps. This actually is not the fact. The fact is all the things we use every day need water to create them including our clothing, furniture, building materials and just about everything else we use. There is absolutely no industry in this world which does not utilize water for its business purpose. Did you know that by avoiding wastage of food also we can conserve water – how? It takes 2400 litres of water to create a hamburger, The water used in creating the hamburger includes water to grow the food the cow eats, water that the cow drinks, water for processing the meat and also water for cleaning the cow. Similarly, it takes 2000 litres to create a t-shirt, 32 litres of water to create a microchip and 140 litres to create a cup of coffee. So remember everytime you leave your cup of coffee half consumed you waste around 70 lits of water. So Put on your thinking caps and if possible come out with more innovative and effective ways to save water. What is that one thing that you will do (and continue doing forever) as your contribution towards Water conservation. Avoid wastage of all thing and minimise your consumption.
