What are the ways to conserve water?
-reduce leakages
-improve public awareness on the importance
-water meters
-prevent pollution
-turn off the tape when brushing teeth
What is sustainable water supply?
-sustainable approaches to water supply focuses on:
management of water resources
reducing waste and excessive demand
What is groundwater management?
-groundwater is stored in underground aquifers
-to ensure sustainability, abstraction must be balanced by recharge
-if groundwater levels fall, water can become contaminated
What is water recycling?
-involves re-using treated wastewater for purposes like irrigation and industry
How is grey water used?
-grey water is taken from bathrooms and washing machines
-if used within 24 hours, it contains fertiliser for plants
-water from toilets cannot be used in this way
