At school and at home, you can help protect our water resources.
•Turn off the tap in your bathroom while you brush your teeth.
•Take shorter showers. (Get a timer and time yourself.)
•Don't let the water run constantly while you're washing or rinsing dishes.
•Fill a pitcher with tap water and put it in the fridge, rather than running the tap every time you want a cold drink!
•Clean sidewalks and driveways with a broom--not the water hose!
•Water your lawn in the early morning to avoid evaporation.
•Repair dripping faucets.
•Place a layer of mulch around trees and plants to retain water.
