Saving Water When You Brush Your Teeth!
The video below shows that it takes 5 seconds to fill up 500 mL of water. If that was multiplied by 6 five second intervals, (which is 30 seconds) then you would be wasting around 3000 milliliters of water per brush. Do that twice a day and then you would be using 6000 mL a day! Turn off the water when you brush!
Reusing Plastic Water Bottle
Every Day I drink two 1.5 Liter Saratoga Water Bottles. It took around 15 seconds to fill up 1.5 liters. There was around 5 seconds that the faucet was on where water did not make it into the bottle. 1.5 liters/ 15 secons = .1 liters per second. So in just those 5 seconds I let the faucet run before and after I turned the faucet on I wasted a total of .5 liters of water which is a third of the large bottle. Overall I need to be more aware of how much water I am wasting.
