If the water we use is replenished by precipitation, why do we need to save it? The short answer is that while water can be purified and reused over and over thanks to the natural water cycle and wastewater treatment technology, it may not be available everywhere—or every time—it’s needed. When we all use water more efficiently, we preserve our local water supplies and allow clean water to be shared among people and the environment. Every drop counts!
Viewer Tip: Consider installing WaterSense labeled plumbing fixtures. For every nine homes that install WaterSense labeled toilets, enough water is saved to supply one more household in the community with water!
