The 3 Rs of conservation are: Reuse, reduce and recycle.

These three Rs can be applied to water conservation as well.

Reusing: Water can be reused. For example, water from RO water purifiers can be used to wash the floor. Further, water that we use to wash grains and vegetables can be used to water the plants in the garden.

Reducing: A lot of water gets wasted while performing everyday tasks like bathing and brushing. While brushing teeth we can turn off the tap when the water is not required. Also, showering wastes a lot of water so using bucket to take a bath is advisable. Also, rain water can be harvested or saved to be reused for various purposes.

Recycle: Water can be purified by various methods and recycled.
