Water

Water is a basic necessity that everything on earth needs.

The Problem

Climate change will start to affect the quality of quantity of water. Climate change caused floods, droughts, and storms which causes stress in areas that struggle to get water already as it is. Those situations can cause issues like over watering/dehydration to the crops.

What my family uses

Three to five showers are taken everyday, They range between 10 minutes to 30 minutes. Dishes are washed about 2 to 3 times a day in warm/hot water. Less then a liter of water is used for the smaller animals in the house. About five or more pitchers of water is used for the bigger animals in the house. Almost everyday the one or both washing machines are used, rarely they are forgotten and must be washed again.

Solutions

Take a short shower, like cut down a half an hour shower to a 15 minute one.

Set timers for the washing machine(s) so that its not forgotten and needs to be washed again.
