I’m sure you have all heard about the drought here in California. By now it is common knowledge that we are running pretty low on this resource. Most of Earth’s water is either salt water or permanently frozen. Less than 1% is even useable to humans.

As a reminder, here are five easy ways you can save water: 

1. Turn off the tap when brushing your teeth

2. Take showers, not baths

3. Only wash a full load

4. Use the dishwasher, hand washing usually uses more water

5. Wash your car with a bucket

 

And if all of these are just too difficult for you, then drink more beer and shower together!
