The drought and subsequent water situation in California has gotten to extreme measures with no end in the near future. Since we love our beautiful state and want to keep it as healthy as possible, we all need to do our part in using less water and being more conservation minded. Although there is some water loss that is to be expected and cannot be helped, there are plenty of ways you might not be aware of that can significantly lessen your water usage.

#1 – Dishwashers typically use less water than washing dishes by hand.
#2 – Cut down on the number of glasses to wash by designating one glass for your drinking water each day.
#3 – Collect the water you use to wash fruits and vegetables.
