Save Water!

I know it sounds like a cliche. Every other activist is shouting his/her lungs out trying to get "people like us" to save water. I know we should save water, because it is becoming scarce.

Here are some facts I've read in different articles at different times: (There arent too many, but I'm sure this will be enough to get us thinking).

1. Did you know that 23% of the world's potable water is available in Brazil. Wow.

2. Do you know how much water we flush down the toilet everyday? Based on a research, on an average, each person flushes 4 times a day. In 365 days, it is 1460 times. COnsidering that flush tanks these days are small and use about 8 to 8.5 liters of water each time. That adds upto 11680 liters of water down the drain. Just one person. Now imagine the number of people in this world who flush down such precious water each day.

Next time you use water, think about it. Are you using too much? Can you reduce your usage a bit everyday?
