Name of the Project :
Collect information about domestic water consumption per person per day
and to make a list of habits to be changed to save more water and to suggest
appropriate measures.
Needs / Importance of the project :
Saving water can also have unanticipated, adverse consequences. For
example, if all the water saved by households is used for new development,
water use in total is increased and voters scarcity exacerbated.
Hypothesis :
Conserving water and using it in a good way can reduce water
pollution.
Materials and Apparatus :
Payment paper for noting important things.
Work Plan :
i) Purchase a more efficient clothes washer.
ii) Modify water taps.
iii) Change this washing equipment.
iv) Preparing food with less water.
v) Avoid toilets for throwing household items.
vi) Limit the use of detergents and bleaches.
Description of Actual Procedure:
To avoid water pollution water can be conserved as per the
following ways:
i) Determine if you are toilet leaks, Put food colouring in your toilet
tank. If it seeps into the toilet without flushing you have to leak so
fix it.
ii) Use foaming soap, this allows users to only use water for rinsing
instead for soaping up and rinsing.
iii) While taking a bath, only fill the top with as much what is needed.
iv) Useless water for kids and pets.
v) Turn the tap off when brushing your teeth.
vi) Useless plastic, reuse items.
vii) Use environmentally friendly detergent.
Observations:
i) Conservation of water saves energy. Energy is needed to filter,
heat and pump water to your home, so reducing your water use
also reduces your carbon.
ii) Conserving minimises the effect of drought and water
shortages. Clean freshwater is a very limited resource. Water
pollution comes from industrial and agriculture runoff and in
addition to presenting a danger to aquatic life, water pollution also
impacts humans since extinction of marine life adversely affects
the food chain.
Data Analysis with the help of Tables / Graphs:
Inferences :
i) Water helps weight loss.
ii) Water aids in digestion.
iii) Water detoxifies.
iv) Water hydrates skin.
Suggested Measures :
i) Do not use the toilet as a garbage can, tissues and other
items are often flushed away instead of going into
appropriate disposal containers.
ii) Install water tap aerators or more efficient fixtures.
iii) Take shorter shower.
Reference Materials:
i) I took help of my previous standard books for
information on attachment and diagrams.
ii) I also get useful information on the internet with
some useful diagrams of catchment area.
Acknowledgement :
With no water supply, all vegetarians would soon die out and
the world would resemble a brownish dot, rather than a green
and blue one. Therefore save water and use it in a good way to
have a better future.
