Water Conservation in Schools

the problem:

The problem that we will tackle is the on-going drought in the community. Because the area has been in a precipitation defecit, we would like our school to help conserve water by using the above methods.

why it's important:

Our project is using certain products that will help with the conservation of water. We want our entire student body to cut down on their water usage and to be more aware of our ongoing drought. The products we hope to purchase are ones such as toilets that will use less water when flushed, and sinks that automatically turn on and off, so that water is never wasted.

the plan of action:

Our first step in solving this issue is to raise awareness of our the escalating drought situation in our community. After this, we will have to raise as much money as possible. After we have collected our monies, we will begin to look into methods to effectively conserve water in our school such as low flush toilets and automatic sinks.

how you can get involved:

Others can help by being conscious of their water use.
