Hi Bloggers!!
This week we are going to talk about SAVING WATER.

Have you ever tought "saving water?? naaa there is a lot of it", well you must change your mind.  

Water pollution is the contamination of water so that it becomes unfit for usage., how many cleaning products are used with water?? We are full of them!! : shampoo, soap, hands-soap, bleach, all-purpose cleaner...and the list continues...

Water pollution affects wildlife living in the water or nearly areas. They are killed or highly affected by chemicals that we, humans, use for our daily lifestyle.

Here are some tips for a better  use of water at home, office, even your community:

#1:
Run your clothes washer and dishwasher only when they are full. You can save up to 1,000 gallons a month.

#2:
Monitor your water bill for unusually high use. Your bill and water meter are tools that can help you discover leaks.

Wash your fruits and vegetables in a pan of water instead of running water from the tap.
