Water Conservation

Simply put, water conservation means using less water, which results in more of it staying in our rivers, lakes and aquifers. Water can be conserved by using water more efficiently or by changing our habits.

A good way to think of water conservation is to think of habits. There are numerous practical habits that we all can develop that reduce the amount of water we use. Many of them are well known, and some are already practiced every day by millions of Americans. They include turning off the tap when brushing teeth, not running the dishwasher until it is full, not taking a tub bath when a quick shower will do, and so forth. Basic water conservation is about good habits and common sense, not water hardship.

By making the connection between water and energy it becomes clear that water conservation not only protects our aquatic resources, saving water also saves money, energy and reduces carbon emissions to help slow global warming.
