Water Conservation in the Smokies

May 24, 2008

This Summer is going to be hot and there is always the possibility of a drought. Here are some ways you can help conserve water:
(1)    Take brief showers and turn off the water in the shower when you don’t need it (for instance lathering up shampoo). Try to keep your showers to two minutes or less
(2)    Catch all the rinse water from your shower in a bucket and use it on plants
(3)    Install rain barrels to capture water from your gutter
(4)    Consider installing a low-flow toilet and a low-flow shower head
By taking little steps we can help the environment by conserving water.
