When trying to take care of our planet, it can seem overwhelming to feel like you’re just a drop in the ocean. As such, it’s easy to pass the buck and leave the responsibility with governments and big businesses who are having the biggest influence. However, shifting this mindset towards a more collaborative approach, where we all play our part, will have huge impacts on turning the tide when it comes to global warming and protecting our environment.
One of the most pressing issues facing the population is water scarcity. In fact, demand for fresh water is
set to outstrip supply by as much as 40% by 2030. This worrying statistic is just one of the reasons why we all need to play our part, and urgently adopt better water-management habits in our own lives.
To help you get started, Compare the Market has produced this informative guide all about reducing our water consumption. This helpful handbook explains how we can save water in different ways around the home. From designing our gardens more mindfully, to the ways in which we use kitchen appliances, you may be surprised to learn about just how many opportunities there are for water saving at home. Best of all, small changes can often have the biggest impact when it comes to water conservation; you don’t have to make drastic lifestyle changes or kit your home out with sustainable technology. When we all do a little in our local communities, the ripple effect can be felt across the globe.
