Apply water only as fast as the soil can absorb it.
When washing dishes by hand, fill the sink basin or a large container and rinse when all of the dishes have been soaped and scrubbed.
When you give your pet fresh water, don't throw the old water down the drain. Use it to water your trees or shrubs.
To save water and time, consider washing your face or brushing your teeth while in the shower.
When you are washing your hands, don't let the water run while you lather.
