Let’s Learn About Water!

Did you know that people can only use less than 1% of all the water on the Earth? 1..So it is important that we use our water wisely and don’t waste it.

There are many simple things we can do to save water.

●Turn off the tap(龙头). Just by turning off the tap while you brush your teeth in the morning and before bedtime, you can save up to 8 gallons of water! 2.. Turn off the tap! Put the plates in the dishwasher(洗碗机).

●Take a shower instead of filling up a bathtub(浴缸). 3.

To save even more water, keep your shower under five minutes long--try timing yourself with a clock next time!

●Fix the leak(裂缝). 4.. That would be like flushing(冲洗) your toilet more than 50 times for no reason!

●Water your yard in a clever way.The best time to water your yard is in the early morning or late evening when it’s cool outside. Also, when you’re helping your parents water the yard, make sure not to water the plants too much---remember that a little sprinkle(洒) goes a long way!

●Who needs a hose(橡皮软管)? 5.. A hose can waste 6 gallons per minute if you leave it running, but using a bucket and sponge only uses a few gallons!
