Water Conservation
Water is not an unlimited resource. People in some parts of the world have to
live in desert or near desert conditions with little water to drink or grow food. Even in
Alberta, water levels can run low when we have a long period of dry weather with little
rain or snow. So let’s not waste our water but use it wisely.
Kids – you have an
important role in conserving water and protecting this resource and there are things you can do
now to get a good start
Water conservation tips for kids:
Saving water is often just as easy as turning
off a faucet!
Here are some simple things you can do at home:
- don’t keep the water running while you’re
brushing your teeth
- don’t run the tap for a cold drink of water.
Use ice cubes or keep a pitcher of water in
the refrigerator
- take shorter showers or use less bath
water. When showering, try keeping an
egg timer in the bathroom to see if you
can get your shower down to three minutes
... while still getting clean!
