Eco Schools
In our recent School Council & Eco School meeting we discussed our action points as a school for our Green Flag. One area for improvement is under the heading WATER. We currently score 6/10 on this area. Pupils discussed how we should le the wider school community know about how water is used in the home and how people could help reduce water wastage.
The graphic above shows how water is used in a typical home. Is this the same in your home?
There is also a considerable amount of water wasted in homes.
Here are some tips for saving water.
1. Put a full plastic bottle in your toilet cistern, each flush will have less water in it.
2. Take shorter showers
3. Turn off the water while washing your teeth,
4. Use a dishwasher for full loads only.
5. Keep a water bottle in the fridge so you don't run the tap for cold water.
