Unlike what most people think, water is not an infinite resource, infact:
It important that we conserve the water we have as Australia can go through drought periods. This means there is less rain, soils dry out quicker and dams get low or run dry. Conserving water does not only mean using less water, it mean ensuring our water sources are not polluted, using our toilets wisely and improving water management. There are plenty of ways to conserve water and these challenges will help your school community think twice about the water that we have access too!
If your school is part of Brisbane, Ipswich and Scenic Rim council regions, you can take part in this water conservation program. Urban Utilities will fit your school out with data loggers so that your school can collect real-time water consumption data over 12 months. The data can help your school lower water wastage!
