What Can We Do?

• Change attitudes and behavior towards the use of water

• Close taps carefully each time after use
• Conserve water, manage sanitation and solid wastes at all levels
• Reduce water consumption so that the water saved can be used by others
• Extend a helping hand to the government because they cannot do it alone
• Be responsible and proactive citizens, become involved in city affairs for a cleaner and greener city
• Support organizations and institutions that provide a platform for partnering between citizens and the government.

Suggestions for Managing Water Conservation  

1. Ensure regular maintenance and repair of all water infrastructure
2. Institute periodic water audits
3. Arrange for reuse of water harvested from the atmosphere (through cooling action of air conditioners)
4. In offices, schools and industries appoint one or more person to take on water conservation responsibilities
5. Make these responsibilities part of department goals, individual goals, and job descriptions
6. Institute daily checks of all bathrooms, kitchens, work areas and outdoor spaces to ensure that all taps are closed tight and that there are no leakages before the office or school closes each day.
