Water Conservation can start at home !!

Water conservation could pretty much start at home with some simple ideas. Installing low-flow showerheads and faucet aerators could save 16 - 25 gallons of water a day in every home. Turning the faucet off while brushing your teeth, saves almost 2 gallons per minute. Fixing leaky faucets could save another few gallons per leak per week. Watering your lawn before 6 AM could save another 20 gallons per day. A water saving washer or toilet could add to your water savings even more. In short, small ideas and actions can add up to a large amount of savings of precious water. One of the water companies in the Bay Area has said, "Once it's on, it's gone". So true !!
