What Can YOU Do?
Water is an extremely precious resource and it is up to us to take action to make sure that we protect it. Too often, we take such resources for granted and don’t realise the catastrophe we’ve caused until it is too late. However, it is extremely easy to make small changes around your community to not only bring awareness to the topic of water conservation but to do your part in saving it , suggested by the Groundwater Foundation:
- Education! The first step to making a change is to educate people about the topic itself. You could hold education events to tech pepople about the importance of water conservation, where our water comes from, and why we need to save it.
- Make changes in your everyday life! Check for leaky faucets, take shorter showers, catch the water and repurpose it. There are many different ways to check for everyday appliances that may be contributing to our water waste.
- Raise Awareness about Pollution! Believe it or not, pollution also greatly impacts the waste of our water and oftentimes ends up hurting more than just our water supply. Teach others about the importance of pollution prevention and how everything that we do afffects many different aspects of our lives.
Through little steps, we can make a huge difference and it is time that we do our part in saving our water!
