GOING GREEN: H2O SAVERS

| | Comments (5)

I've shared these tips with you before, but since it's Going Green Week on Wheel of Fortune, I figured a friendly reminder couldn't hurt! Take a look at these water-saving tips I found on BeWaterWise.com. Let me know what you and your family do to conserve, too.



Indoor

What you can do:

How Much You Can Save:

Turn off your water when you brush your teeth.
3 gallons per day
Shorten your showers by one or two minutes.
5 gallons per day
Fix leaky faucets.
20 gallons per day
Wash only full loads of laundry.
15 and 20 gallons per load


Talk to your family and friends about saving water. If everyone does a little, we all benefit a lot.


Outdoor

What you can do:

How Much You Can Save:

Water your yard only before 8am to reduce evaporation and interference from the wind.
25 gallons per day
Install a smart sprinkler controller.
40 gallons per day
Use a broom instead of a hose to clean driveways and sidewalks.
150 gallons each time
Check your sprinkler system for leaks, overspray and broken sprinkler heads.
500 gallons per month


Mulch! Save hundreds of gallons per year by using organic mulch around plants to reduce evaporation.

Hi Vanna
It's Donald
How have you liked being at the puzzleboard for 27 years?
Next season will the 28th season of Wheel Of Fortune I can't believe it.
I like the designers you wear
Why don't wear your hair in a ponytail or up
I'm going to watch you and Pat Sajak tonight

your always so up.

These are all really good "green" tips! I always appreciate it when "Wheel"
does these environmentally-themed weeks,
as I think it's so important for everyone
to do what they can to help our planet.

Thanks for all the fun your show brings!
