jeepers: It all depends on how you get your water. Where I work, we have an expensive R/O plant and we produce our own water. The electricity is very expensive. As for residences....everyone uses a cistern to collect rain water. If it doesn't rain much...which is normal during the winter months...we have to have water delivered and put in the cistern...a truckload of 5,000 gallons costs around $300 US.
And that is the point!
How we get our potable water but here I do not count up the value of water by the money we have or haven’t to pay for
and the water we waste, needs to get conditioned again for to get potable water again and that needs energy, like you said So we need electricity, so we have to produce it, which again set free CO² emissions
So that’s my ulterior motive, why I’m trying to save water and electricity The side effect, that the bill I’ve to pay for water and electricity wont be that high and therefore will be some more money be left in my wallet …of course, I’m also not sad about
jeepers: Has anyone done anything to save our planet today ? I used less gasoline. I stayed home doing absolutely nothing.
Recycled rubbish that can be. Havent used my car in 1 and a half weeks. Used earth choice detergent. Turn off lights if not neccessary. Use as little water as possible. Recycle some water from inside to out. Feed my scraps to my chickens and get great eggs in return. Think about mother earth everyday.
