Take a bucket into the shower with you tomorrow morning. Let it fill up while the water gets hot. Empty it on your garden as you head out the door, and you've just saved water. It's so easy - save water, save money, save our future! The world is facing a water crisis. Australia is one of the driest countries on earth, yet the average Australian consumes around 100,000 litres of water per year. After nearly a decade of drought, our reservoirs are at an all-time low. Up to 60 per cent of our urban water supply is used in the home, so a few basic changes to our daily routine can make a huge difference. EVERY LAST DROP is a simple, practical guide that will show you how to save up to 50,000 litres of water per person per year. It takes you on a journey through your kitchen, bathroom, laundry and garden, offering low-cost tips that will help you cut your water consumption - and your water bill - in half., The number one issue and concern in Australia today is WATER. Take a bucket into the shower with you tomorrow morning. Let it fill up while the water gets hot. Dump it on your garden as you head out the door, and you just saved water. It's so easy and so necessary. Australia is the driest populated continent on the planet. Water restrictions are only getting more severe as global warming and population growth threaten suplies. We cannot live without water, so it is up to everyone to act now. Save water, save money, save our future! EVERY LAST DROP is a practical guide that will take you on a journey through your kitchen, bathroom, laundry and garden offering low cost tips that will help you save 50,000 litres of water a year. Craig Madden has been working in the water industry for over four years with a "hands on" approach to solutions in domestic water saving. He has installed over 500 grey water systems for households around VIC and NSW and is currently installing rain flush systems in Melbourne that take the water from the roof and use it to flush the toilet and fill the washing machine. Water saving is a great passion for Craig as he grew up in plant nurseries from birth in the western farming districts of Victoria. With that comes an explicit understanding of not only technical things such as irrigation but a deeper understanding of the need for water in all living things. The current crisis we face in Australia with regard to reservoir and waste is either misunderstood or lost between intuition and conscious thought. According to Craig, "A simple cost-effective guide such as this one will enable people not only to help the issue in their own homes but would be "cost effective" in assisting us to save up to 50,000 litres per year per person. The solutions may not need big band aids such as de-sanitization or the building of expensive catchments; we can all do our bit and I can show you how through this simple guide"., This simple, practical guide demonstrates how simple measures and actions can help anyone save 50,000 liters of water per year. Each room in the house is addressed--from the kitchen and bathroom to the laundry and garden--and low-cost tips are provided that will cut water consumption--and the water bill--in half.
