We are living in a world that is becoming more conscious and more focused on living in a more sustainable way, in just about every possible way there is. While it has taken quite some time to get to this point (many of us would say that it has taken far too long to get to this point...but better late than never), we are now going full steam ahead with the direct intention to prioritise and wholeheartedly invest in creating a more meaningful and sustainable future for us all, for other creatures, and for planet Earth. There are many ways that we are prioritising a more sustainable future. 

The bigger and more enhanced water sustainability action becomes, for instance, the more we are realising that this is one of the most worthwhile intentional shifts that we can possibly make. When it comes to improving water sustainability at home specifically, there are many water saving tips out there, all of which are important and have their own value. It can be overwhelming for individuals to know where to start and how to maintain their approach towards prioritising water sustainability in their homes. So, what are the three best water saving tips to improve water sustainability at home?

Invest in a water tank

Having access to fresh rain water can and so often does make a world of difference for individuals who are trying to live more sustainably at home in general, as well as trying to invest more energy, money, and time into prioritising water sustainability at home. Investing in a water tank is obviously a considerable expense initially, however it is also an expense that most definitely pays for itself over time. And eventually, investing in a water tank is an approach to saving water at home that is more sustainable in the long term as well as obviously being a more cost effective solution in the long term.

Install water saving devices

Whether it is installing a device on all taps to stop extra leakage or going to further lengths to commit to and to promote water saving at home, the installation of water saving devices around your home and across your property can and does make a world of difference in terms of how much water you use and how much water inadvertently goes to waste. Seemingly little things like a leaky kitchen tap or a constantly dripping hose end can result in long term water waste that drives up your water bill or uses your tank water more quickly. These water saving devices are becoming bolder and smarter all the time and they are also becoming more popular around the globe. 

Invest in a shower timer

Believe it or not, one of the biggest water wasters in many homes around the globe is individuals spending quite a long time in the shower. So often, we use our time in the shower to wash away the day or spend some time relaxing. So, it makes all the sense in the world that we would sometimes spend more time in the shower than necessary. Investing in a shower timer is a great way to effectively ensure that you are spending just four minutes or so in the shower rather than letting time escape you and more water escape down the shower drain.
