What is wasting water  like ?

SYNTHESIS CONCLUSION : ANDRES 23.05.11

Wasting water at school is a big problem atthe CCB. Is a big problem because student let the tap open. Cleaners clean all with drinkable watar, bathrooms, flours, ofice,class rooms and more. 6-8 liters of water or more are wasted only on a running tap uses. Are not urinals that don t waste to much water. people don t care of the problem of wasting water, they play with water throing water to each other, When people clean the basses they let the focet open alot of time, PEOPLE WASTE DRINKABLE WATER THAT IN SOME YEARS WE ARE NOT GOING TO HAVE. I conclude that is a big problem also because are too many urinal, sinks, wash hands basins, water fouintais and so on, and are not saving taps or are not urinal that don t waste water, so its waste alot of water at school. I conclude that people don t save water bacause they think that is alot of water at school and think that they can waste water and anything pass. Cleaner waste alot of water on the fields, when they let the focet open on the football fields they waste on a they 3601 gallons.

= Internet = Water is essential for life, it is an indispensable resource for the economy, and also plays a fundamental role in the climate regulation cycle. The management and protection of water resources, of fresh and salt water ecosystems, and of the water we drink and bathe in is therefore one of the cornerstones of environmental protection. [] Water. We all need it. It defines life on Earth. Yet too many of us, for too long, have taken for granted the quantity and quality of our water supply. We Americans are gluttons for water – collectively we use an average of 26 billion gallons each and every day. On a per capita basis, we are the world’s largest conhttp://web4.audubon.org/bird/at_home/ConserveWater.html = Question =

360 litres wasted on the focet on the football fields? YOU THINK THIS IS BAD? YEEEES

"A running tap uses ** 6 litres of water a minute **, a shower can use anywhere between 9 – 45 litres per minute.

Toilet flushing (oderless) accounts for ** 30% ** of our daily water use – with old toilets using as much as 14 litres per flush compared to new dual flush models which use as little as 2.6 and 4 litres per flush.

Fixing a dripping tap can save as much as ** 5000 litres ** a year so if in the school we fix or buy 20 dripping tap we can save 100000 litres – if everyone in the school fixed their dripping taps we would save enough water to supply 120,000 for one day."

(copy paste the 2 last paragraph) [] ( This is related to wasting water at school because hear said how many water is wasted only on a flush,l how many % is wasted on a day and how much water can be saved)

1) Urinal- (waterless)
2)Toilets/ WC' s 3) Wash hands basins (in toilets only.  4) Sinks 5) water fountains 6) Cleaner sinks

===Conclusion : The conclusion of the information that isa and I do yesterday of bathrooms at primary, is that are many things that waste water in the bathrooms at primary like urinal, WC' s and so on. Almost all this things in the bathrooms are not good waste a lot of water. People in the school(primary) don t take care of the bad use of water because they don t know what is te problem. They don t know that each flush waste 6 liters.=== 15-05-11 Andrea:

The world's temperature raises and the earth’s weather is going hot. Floods are happening in new areas, while others are drying out faster than ever. People unnecessary waste and pollution of our water. Here there are 10 facts about water: (It is copy paste, but i dont have the link) (This info is related to form because it says how much water is wated in diferent ocations)
 * 1) Americans now use 127 percent more water than we did in 1950.
 * 2) About 95 percent of the water entering our homes goes down the drain.
 * 3) Running the tap while brushing your teeth can waste 4 gallons of water.
 * 4) Older toilets can use 3 gallons of clean water with every flush, while new toilets use as little as 1 gallon.
 * 5) Leaky faucets that drip at the rate of one drop per second can waste up to 2,700 gallons of water each year.
 * 6) A garden hose or sprinkler can use almost as much water in an hour as an average family of four uses in one day.
 * 7) A water-efficient dishwasher will use as little a 4 gallons per wash cycle, whereas some older models use up to 13 gallons per cycle.
 * 8) Some experts estimate that more than 50 percent of landscape water use goes to waste due to evaporation or runoff caused by over-watering.
 * 9) Many people in the world exist on 3 gallons of water per day or less. We can use that amount in one flush of the toilet.
 * 10) Over a quarter of all the clean, drinkable water you use in your home is used to flush the toilets.

Did you know that over 180,000 gallons of water every year can be wasted by a leaking toilet? Every day 500 gallons of water could be wasted by your leaky toilet =(

(This is related to what is it like because tells all the amound of water that in one years wastes and how many water is daily waste by oly one leaking toilet)

Internet ===Don't Leave the Water Running === Leaving the faucet [|running] while you brush your teeth, shave, wash your face or do dishes wastes water. Turn on the faucet only when you need the water, and turn it off as soon as possible. Use a sink stopper or plastic basin to gather just enough water for use. ===Fix Leaks === An astonishing 13.7 percent of indoor water use derives from leaks. Don't let a dripping faucet or running toilet waste water; have it repaired. If you have drip irrigation hoses or an automatically refilling pool, check for leaks there as well.

People dont care of wasting water is a big problem, they waste and waste water and dont think that water can finish in any moment, apart of not using water in a good way, people polluted the water. the reason for not caring of water is because people thing is a waste of time, Money, and searching for Solutions. People dont have cosience of what water will be on the future. Also another reason is that people thing that if they save water it will not make any difference becuase there are no to much, thats why people dont take care of water. But imagine if every one coperates, the Earth will be with a lot of water there will not be people dying because of not having water.

Also people dont care of water because they say that in the Earth there is more water than land. That the sea is very big, there is technology and machines that can take the salad water and the pollution form the ocean or sea and converte it in potable water. Also people said water will not finish because in many contries is raining a lot, but the water of the rain goes to the drain or to the river were mixed with all the pollution and then for taking all the pollution they need special machines.

The amount of water being wastedis increasing all the time by 6-fold. The standards of living are growing and rising, people want a cleaner surrounding. These conditions require even more water. We have already taken 3/4 of the water in rivers, lakes, and streams for our own good use, but wild animals, plants and every living thing needs it too.

=A person at the USA wastes 6,500 litres per day, an amazing number.= only 1 percent of the worlds water is drinkable

on rich countries most people have an unlimited supply of frtesh water that flows out of the taps on the kickchen and bathroom. But on some countries people have little acces to clean water. Some women in rural Africa spend a quarter of their time carryng water.

Waisting water is a global problem that people don t care and is a big problem at school, almost all the water in earth is ocean water only one percent of drinkable water, and is only one 1 percent of drincable water and people wated we are not going to have water.

Is a global problem that people u¿in the world dont care about. It´s a vital resource needed for livingand it we dont do anything the consequences in the future will be unreversable. With our exhibition we are trying to make something to stop this. So we think on what we can do, and we can make this problem smaller, if we make something in our school. So we have thought and we reañized that the places this happer is in the bathroom, the sinks, the football fields and also when it rains the water could be saved and re-used.

Andres 26.05.11 Form: What is it like? Is a global problem that people in the world don t care about. Waste a lot of water in schools. E.g let the keys open, let the key of water open a lot of time at school and almost all of that water is waste. One the fills people let the keys water a lot of time with out necessary. People care more other thing that more important for them like petrol. But water is vital for live with out water we don t exist.
