To prevent drought here are some actions you should take:
Take shorter showers. Turn the water on to get wet; turn it off to lather up; then turn the water back on to rinse.
Don't let the water run while brushing your teeth, washing your face, or shaving.
Operate dishwashers only when they are full.
Don’t waste water waiting for it to get hot or cold. Capture it for other uses such as plant watering.
Operate washing machines only when they are full or set the water level for the size of your load.
Never pour water down the drain when there may be another use for it. Use it to water your indoor plants or garden.
Repair dripping faucets by replacing washers. One drop per second wastes 2,700 gallons of water per year!
Choose a water-efficient irrigation system such as drip irrigation for your trees, shrubs, and flowers.
Consider using rainwater collection systems to water plants and gardens.
SAVE WATER, SAVE THE PLANET.
