water usage 1. For a 24 hour period complete the following log
of household water use (view document). Tally up to see how much
water your household uses per day and per quarter. 2. Play
around with the numbers in the table to see what difference
small changes could have on your totals (ex: reducing your
shower time by only 2 minutes—from 8 minutes to 6 minutes—could
save 36 litres of water per person per day). 3. Commit to making
some changes to improve your household’s water consumption and
cost. 4. In a few months, complete the log again to compare your
water usage. Check your next water bill to see if the changes
you have made have saved you money.
