How do YOU Conserve Water?

Written by Mike

Experts have many ideas on how to conserve water. But the lists they come up with are by no means exhaustive. Often, the best and most creative ways are thought up by the general public. With that in mind, I logged onto Yahoo Answers and asked the following question:

Do you take steps to conserve water around the house? Why or why not? If so, do you use any of the ideas in the following article? Are there any other ways that you conserve water?

The answers I got back were interesting and are as follows:

TJ Writes:

Pee in a brita filter, and put it back in the fridge.

PreseaCombatir Writes:

1. Take a shower, not baths
2. Don't flush the toilet
3. Pee on your plants (it actaully helps them grow cuz pee has nitrates that the plants need, which is why fertilaizer is made form animal poop, look it up if you dont believe me) instead of watering them

I can see you! Writes:

I conserve water by only flushing the toilet once a day, before I go to bed.

ambar Writes:

Using greywater (Water from shower, cloths washer, sinks, etc. except toilet water.) to watering your garden.

Brendan Writes:

OF COURSE
if it's yellow let it mellow if it's shiit flush it down-yes, i just like the word shiit. Oh, and turn the water off while u brush ur teeth, and take shorter showers. one more way to conserve water is to buy recycled paper products, because they use less water to make. kthhxxxbaii

Harvest rainwater to flush toilets, wash car, and water the landscape.

Ditch the dish washer.

Only wash a full load of clothes.

Never buy bottled water.

Alex Rey Writes:

There are numerous ways of conserving the water.. To name a few:

*By adjusting sprinklers so only your lawn is watered and not the house, sidewalk, or street.

* By Installing covers on pools and spas and check for leaks around your pumps.

*Minimize your garbage disposal. Compost vegetable food waste instead and save gallons every time.

Wang Writes:

(Editors Note: I'm pretty sure I'm not kidding).

Jerry Lee Writes:

After I take a shower, I turn the water *OFF*!
(There is a lot of water where I live, and it comes free with the rent)
