How to Help Save the Earth

1. Conserve water at home

Wasting water is one of the biggest ways individuals impact the health of the planet. Taking measures to use less water is something you can start doing right away. If you live in an area with a water shortage, this is even more important for the health of your region's environment. Try to check off as many items as possible from this list: - Check and fix any water leaks. A leaky faucet can waste a lot of water. - Install water-saving devices on your faucets and toilets. A low-flow showerhead could be a good start. - Don't wash dishes with the water running continuously. Use a method that requires less water to get the dishes clean. - Turn off washing machine's water supply to prevent leaks. It doesn't need to be on all the time. - Replace old toilets with new ones that use a lot less water. - Wash and dry only full loads of laundry and dishes. Doing a half-load wastes water. - Don't use too much water to water your lawn. - Don't leave the faucet running while you brush your teeth.
