Save water, save our planet!

---

Climate breakdown is one of the biggest drivers of water shortages and is expected to heap even more pressure on our depleting supplies.

• Turn off the taps. Don't let your water consumption run out of control.
• Shower with less. Every minute you spend in a power shower uses up to 17 litres of water. Set a timer on your phone to keep your showers short, sweet and water-saving.
• Save up your dirty clothes.Washing a full machine load of clothes uses less water and energy than 2 half-loads.
• Reduce food waste.It takes a lot of water to produce our cereal, fruit and other food.
• Catch rainwater. Installing water butts saves up to 5,000 litres of water a year. And your plants will thank you for rainwater rather than treated tap water.
