It is no secret that water sustainability is crucial to humanity. But many do not truly understand its importance, what it means to them, and how every individual can contribute to ensuring we are a society that continues to focus on water sustainability for posterity’s sake.
It often feels as though Samuel Taylor Coleridge put it best in his poem The Rime of the Ancient Mariner when he said, “Water, water everywhere, nor any drop to drink.” While nearly 71% of the Earth’s surface is made up of water, only 2.5% is freshwater that can be used for drinking, agriculture, manufacturing, energy, and transport. As our world grows increasingly dependent on manufactured products, our need for freshwater has significantly increased, putting the focus on water sustainability front and center.
Make an Effort to Make an Impact on Water Conservation
While water sustainability is a hot topic in politics and conservation efforts, everyone can have an impact by implementing practices to encourage water efficiency in everyday life.
Simple things such as turning off the sink water while brushing your teeth or only allowing the shower to run for enough time to get warm before jumping in can make a big difference in the big scheme of things. It is also important to fix leaky faucets, which may seem insignificant but can add up to gallons of wasted water for both your wallet and water conservation efforts.
In other areas of the house, you can also help by only running the dishwasher or washing machine when you have a full load. This saves on water and energy, benefiting your wallet again.
If you want to take it one step further, you can swap outdated appliances for energy-efficient and labeled WaterSense. While this sort of upgrade is an investment on the front end, it can save you a great deal of money over time while also saving water and energy.
