Water is life. If there were no water, there would be no life.

Do you know all life forms of all species of

flora and fauna can live because of water? Water is the major component of the building blocks of life,
food, metabolism, and functioning of every living being and organism. Living this wonderful life is
impossible without water.

First, water is indispensable for life. Water is the force behind all the industries, agriculture,
manufacturing, trade, and commerce. All forms of energy are done using water. Be it hydroelectrically
projects, or thermal power plants, or nuclear power plants, water is the key ingredient in all of them.
There would be no power without water.

In addition, the harsh reality is we are doing nothing to save it. Our natural water bodies such as rivers,
lakes, and oceans, have been turned into huge sewage channels and drains. The underground water has
been terribly contaminated. It appears soon there won’t be left any good water in the world.

It Is our responsibility to conserve this life nectar. It is possible only by changing our outlook toward this
wonderful natural resource. We must ensure there is no pollution of water bodies by dumping any
waste, such as sewage, effluents, and other toxic substances. The people and the government must
ensure the installation of effluents and smoke treatment plants at industrial garbage, and sewage units.
All people should make efforts to conserve water.

Water conservation is the practice of using water efficiently to reduce unnecessary water usage.
According to Fresh Water Watch, water conservation is important because fresh clean water is a limited
resource, as well as a costly one. As a homeowner, you’re probably already well aware of the financial
costs of inefficient water use. Conservation of this natural resource is critical for the environment — and
our wallets.

America’s population has doubled over the last half century, and our demand for water has tripled.
Water conservation is more important than ever, and the world is looking for tips on saving water. The
great news is that with just a few simple changes, you can reduce your water footprint. And
Constellation is here to help!

The majority of household water use comes from toilets, washing machines, showers, baths, faucets and
leaks, but what you can do to save water is fairly simple. These 10 water-saving tips will put you on the
path to conserving water in your household.

Put a brick in your toilet’s water tank. You flush an average of 20 gallons of water a day down the toilet. If
you don’t have a high-efficiency toilet, try filling your tank with something that will displace some of that
water, such as a brick.
Use the right amount of water for each load of laundry. Typically 15-40 percent of indoor home water
use comes from doing laundry. Save water by making sure to adjust the settings on your machine to the
proper load size.

Pick your washing machine wisely. When considering top-load vs. front-load washers, front-loading
washing machines generally use less water.

Water plants wisely. Water your lawn or garden early in the morning or late in the evening, so the water
lasts and is not immediately evaporated by the hot sun.

Install a low-flow showerhead. With a low-flow showerhead, you can save 15 gallons of water during a
10-minute shower.

Check for and repair leaks. An average of 10,000 gallons of water is wasted every year due to household
leaks. One of the most effective ways to cut your water footprint is to repair leaky faucets and toilets.

Use a dishwasher. Dishwashing accounts for less than 2 percent of indoor water use, but using a machine
is actually more water efficient than hand washing, especially if you run full loads. ENERGY STAR®
dishwashers save about 1,600 gallons of water over its lifetime of use.

Turn off the water. Teach your whole household to turn off the faucet while brushing teeth or shaving.
Every little bit of water conservation helps!

Defrost food in the fridge. Instead of running frozen foods under hot water from the faucet, build in time
to let them defrost in the refrigerator.

Manage outdoor water use. Don’t forget about water conservation outside as well. Equip all hoses with
shut-off nozzles, which can prevent hose leaks.

What else can you do to save water?

When running your dishwasher or washing machine, make sure you fully load each cycle. Running full
cycles helps conserve water because these appliances will fill to a certain level and having more dishes or
clothes reduces the amount of water needed for each cycle. This ensures that you get the most energy-
saving and water-saving use from each run of your appliances. Here’s a video on how to save water by
packing your dishwasher efficiently:

One of the best water conservation tips out there, with possibly the largest impact, is a simple one: Take
showers instead of baths. Baths may be relaxing and enjoyable, but it takes more than 78 gallons of
water to fill a tub. Showers are a more water efficient way to bathe. Here are more tips on saving water
from taking a shower:
