It’s April, “Earth Day Month”. For me, that creates even more awareness everyday that we need to be taking steps to preserve and protect our planet, our real estate.
My big passion is water. I’ve written a number of posts about it. Here, again, is a wonderful site devoted to the preservation and protection of water.
This article focuses on something new and so easy to use, the Water Pebble. This device simply sits near any water drain and times the water usage. It “teaches” you to reduce the time you have the water flowing. Waterpebble could help reduce the average shower to less than 6 minutes saving over 20 litres of hot water every time.
At this time, I’m not planning to buy a water pebble but, because of reading this, I am going to be more aware of the time I spend in the shower, rinsing dishes, washing my hands, any time I run water.
Isn’t it great to be aware? We hold so much power in our own decisions, our own actions. What will you do to make a difference to the Planet?
“When the Well’s dry, we know the Worth of Water.”
Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790), Poor Richard´s Almanac
