Water Usage in 2010 Calendar - February 2010 |
|
Ganges | Ami Vitale
Out of India’s 3,119 towns and cities, just 209 have partial
treatment facilities, and only eight have full wastewater
treatment facilities (WHO 1992). 114 cities dump untreated
sewage and partially cremated bodies directly into the
Ganges River. Downstream, the untreated water is used for
drinking, bathing, and washing. This situation is typical of
many rivers in India as well as other developing countries
(source: Wikipedia). Varanasi, Indai. |

Conserve Water
Don’t leave the tap running to clean your dishes or vegetables.
This wastes up to six litres of water every minute, whereas a
bowl only uses five in total. People who turn off the tap while
brushing their teeth save over 4,000 litres of water a year. |
