Winter is barely over and now the word "drought", "low water" "groundwater depletion" reappeared! France water shortage, restrictions are already in place envisaged in the South and in other régions.L State cares more about water issues. It is appealing to the sense of citizens, their common sense to avoid wasting water, which seems more an inexhaustible resource. For example, the very water-intensive crops such as corn, are stigmatized.
Similarly, the summer we are led to not wash cars, do not water the garden to avoid draining groundwater. The state is relayed in recent years and assisted by experts, media, websites that offer tips and tricks for saving water in daily life.
This advice, of course, the effect of saving water in our basement, save the world by extension. But they also aim to make us do économies.En Indeed, water is more expensive. Like anything that becomes scarce, prices will not decrease, the contrary.
So if you do not have much means or if you're feeling green (which everyone should have these days to preserve our environment), follow these tips:
- Do not let the water run while washing your teeth or hands. Fill both trays in your sink, to avoid the water running continuously for rinsing your dishes-Install faucet aerator with a special that will bring air into your water. You will see the impression of sinking the same amount of water but, in reality, the air mixes with the water, you will make savings sacred.
- Install a dual flush command, put a brick in your tank or better, if you can make the leap, install toilets where the water is replaced by sawdust (this is guaranteed odorless "Anyway, I humbly confess myself not yet decided to install them.)
- Invest in home appliances consuming less water, Class A type
- When you wash vegetables, do it in a bowl to collect the wash water, which will serve you water your plants by exemple.Si you have a garden, you can retrieve water rain with tanks and a system to place on your gutter. And will fill your tanks at high speed.
-To water your garden or your flower beds with a garden hose, you can invest in an electric water pump to help you empty your water tank easily and quickly. The rainwater collected can also be used to wash your deck, your car, etc..
- For the garden, sprinkle in the evening, mulch your garden with plenty to keep your soil moist at all times, use the micro-drip irrigation.
- Take showers (60 to 80 L) instead of baths (150 to 200 L).
- Check your installation and go hunting for water leaks. To do this, look at your water meter and write down one evening the number of your consumption, then look again in the morning upon waking, if the number is different, there are one or leaks (unless you have been getting a little pee during the night).
- If you have the money, you can also install an underground tank, complete with numerous filters and connected to your indoor facility, which will allow you to make very large profits by not consuming that eventually filtered rainwater that is free. This water of high purity may you used to do laundry, fill the toilet flushing, washing floors, washing dishes. Some wash themselves with, what seems also very beneficial in that rain water is devoid of limestone and makes skin and hair softer. Since water is softer, it will also save you soap and fabric softeners (40 to 60%). Others even drink this water, which seems safe even if the state does not recommend this absorption. (In this case, I strongly advise you to add a great charcoal filter or reverse osmosis. Only those systems you can ensure safe drinking water. Check Moreover, the type of bacteria and pollutants before they eliminate you risk to drink water.)
Know that in Belgium, these underground tanks are required for new construction. In France, this technique is becoming increasingly popular, even if the cost is still high: 7000 Euros for a tank of 10 000 L, inclusive.
With the savings made and also the ability to obtain certain credits or bonuses from some town halls, will pay for your tank medium terme.Voilà all possible tricks to save water. Do the right thing for you and your purse but also for others, for our planète.Persévérez and why not go further by pointing out the practices of farmers who pump water from rivers and aquifers to the death (not all are like that, thankfully! ).
Why not condemn the practices of ski resorts with their snow guns that pump astronomical amounts of water as snowmelt does not compensate? (For the phenomenon of evaporation, the amount of water recovered from the melting of the artificial snow is much less important than it took to create it pumped).
It remains a sacred job to do. You must be involved. But the state must also act in the common sense and limit or prohibit certain deceptive practices and criminal.
