1) Avoid flushing the toilet when not necessary. Dispose of tissues, insects and other such waste in the trash rather than the toilet. 
2) Take shorter showers. 
3) Operate dishwashers and washing machines only when they are fully. 
4) Store drinking water in the refrigerator rather than letting the tap run every time you want a cold glass of water. 
5) Repair dripping faucets. If your faucet is dripping at the rate of one drop per second, you can expect to waste 2,700 gallons per year which will add to the cost of water and sewer utilities, or strain your septic system. 
6) Replace your showerhead with an ultra-low-flow version. 
7) While staying in a hotel or even at home, consider reusing your towels. 
When doing laundry, match the water level to the size of the load. 
9) Never put water down the drain when there may be another use for it such as watering a plant or garden, or cleaning. 
10) Soak your pots and pans instead of letting the water run while you scrape them clean. 

Not only can we do these things to help, but we also must pass these and other tips along to our friends and family members and let them know about the importance of conserving water.
