After visiting Africa last year, where most places we visited the population did not have running water, I became more conscious about how wasteful we were being at home. For example, when we did something as simple as brushing our teeth, we left the tap running while we did so. Now, I turn the tap off as I brush my teeth. It is a simple little thing, but I know that I am saving a tremendous amount of water by doing so.
