WATER
CONSERVATION
- Don't waste water by letting
it run while brushing, shaving, or doing the
dishes.
- If your dishwasher is an "Energy
Star" model, using it for a full load uses less
water and energy than washing dishes by hand.
- Always wash clothes in a full
load and use about half the "normal" amount
of detergent, which is usually sufficient. Look
for biodegradable detergents as well
- Keep showers short (3 minutes)
- don't shave in the shower and use the shut-off
valve while lathering your hair.
- If you have a car, don't wash
it in the parking lot. (This is not permitted
on campus anyway.) Take it to a car wash that
uses reclaimed water or recycles water.
- When possible, use the water
conserving fixtures (urinals and dual-flush
toilets).
- Limit your use of ice and take
only as much as you need. Ice-makers use lots
of energy and water.
