"Let us conserve water" a reminder that has been told to all people.
But inspite of everything, some people still misuse water consumption. They just ignore it as if they will not be affected if no water can be use on the next day.
I think we should act as early as now because its not only once, twice or trice that the campaign for the water conservation has been announced. Its almost every year that water conservation is being advertised. Hence, water is part of our nature and as I heard in one of the gospel, God always forgives, Man sometimes forgives but Nature never forgives.
Dont you think its time to conserve water before it runs out?

i conserve water every minute and every second of the day, since our water is metered so we have to save water in order to pay lower bill every month. it is also wise to save water at home, check every leakage and water the plants by used water from laundry.

You are doing the right thing. Maybe, if everybody will conserve water, there will be no problem that will arise on this matter. That we will have an enough source for this.

I don't know that I necessarily conserve water but I do not waste it. I never run the sink when I am washing dishes or brushing my teeth. I also don't take long showers, I keep them as fast possible, and I only do full loads of dishes and laundry. So I guess in a way I conserve water although I don't do anything extremely extaordinary.

we all need to contribute small things at conserving water.our house has rain water harvesting system which helps to channelise rainwater to the ground water.its not very expensive but no doubt it can be efficient.if lot many houses have this we can do a little to increase the water table.

I live in a drought-region, so we have to conserve water. I have two rainwater collection tanks on either side of the house, connected to the downpipes from the gutters to collect rainwater off the roof. This is used to water gardens, wash the dogs, wash the car or mop the floors.
I also keep a bucket in the shower to catch the water that is wasted when you heat up the hot water. It takes around 13 liters of water (4 gallons??) before it gets warm enough to step into the shower. Don't let it run down the drain. Catch it in a bucket. When you're finished your shower, take the bucket out and pour it over the garden.
I have the hose from my washing machine loosened away from the sink so I can pour the washing water into a bucket. This gets used to water the lawn or wash the car.
I keep a thick layer of mulch on my gardens to reduce the amount of water my plants and vegetable gardens need every day.
There are plenty of ways to conserve water, but it really is noticeable if you live in a drought area.
