SAVING WATER
My essay is about saving water. An average house uses more than 200 gallons of water per day! Here are some facts about saving water. An average eight percent of all home water use is wasted through leaks. Taking showers instead of baths can save 30 gallons of water. Running your dishwasher and washing machine only when they are full can save up to 1,000 gallons a month.
There are many ways you can help save water. Some of the ways are: take short showers (5-15 minutes), turning off the faucet while you brush your teeth can save 4 gallons a minute.
Water is one of the most important things in life. There is more water than land on earth, but less than one percent of it is fresh water. The rest is saltwater. People use water everyday. From drinking it to taking shower with it, and sometimes we use it for entertainment. A lot of people do waste water. Some of them even contaminate the water. Contaminated water can make animals, plants and people very sick. You can do simple things to help save water. That is why I pledge to help save our water.
