What Can We Do?

If you want to help keep our Earths  waters clean, there are many things we can do to help. We can prevent water pollution of nearby rivers and lakes as well as groundwater and drinking water by following some simple guidelines in your everyday life.

• Conserve water by turning off the tap when running water is not necessary. This helps prevent water shortages and reduces the amount f contaminated water that needs treatment.
• Be careful about what you throw down your sink or toilet. Don't throw paints, oils or other forms of litter down the drain.
• Use environmentally household products, such as washing powder, household cleaning agents and toiletries.
• Dont over use pesticides and fertilisers. This will prevent runoffs of the material into nearby water sources.
• Don't throw litter into rivers, lakes or oceans. Help clean up any litter you see on beaches or in rivers.
