Water Tanker

Water is the one of the most important resources! Ensure that your water tanks are full in the toughest of situations.

Nearly 80 percent of India’s freshwater is used in agriculture.

More than half of the cultivated land in India is under water-intensive crops.

The amount of water India uses to grow one food unit is at least twice that of comparable countries.

Farmers in India rely mainly on tube wells to extract groundwater for their crops.

Conservative estimates suggest that India has over 30 million borewells today.

Almost 25 percent of the world’s groundwater is drawn by India.

Nearly sixty percent of India’s districts have been declared critical on groundwater.

India’s reducing groundwater reserves impact our drinking water as well.

Almost 40% of the population will have no access to drinking water by 2030.

84% of rural households do not have piped water access.

Do's

Take shorter showers to save 8 to 10 liters every minute.
Fill the tub halfway & save 30 to 40 liters.
Check your water meter to check the amount of water you are using. A good rule of thumb is 250 to 300 liters per day, per person.
Repair leaking faucets and turn taps off tightly. Slow drips waste 40 to 50 liters per day.
Start your washing machine and dishwasher only when complete. Save more water by using short cycles.

Do's

Install front-loading washing machines. This helps reduce water usage by about 40 percent.
Use a self-closing nozzle on your hose.
Position your downspouts so rainwater runs onto the lawn or into the garden, not down the driveway.
Plant drought-resistant trees/flowers and use a mulch to keep the soil moist.

Dont's

Dont's

Don't use water to clean driveways or sidewalks. Sweep them instead.
Don't wash your car at home using a hose. Please take it to the car wash, where the water gets recycled.
Don't Pre-Rinse Your Dishes.
Don't throw water used for cooking. Let it cool down and use it for watering plants.
