Save Water And Go Green With These Eco Friendly Products

If your like me and live in California you know saving water is very important because of the current drought. If you live other places without water shortages then you are very lucky, but I would still urge you to think about trying to conserve as much as you can for the sake of the planet. There are many ways you can save water but a lot of those can be an inconvenience to you, I want to give you alternative ways that don't necessarily interfere with with your comfort. A lot of the products we use have new versions that are way more efficient or have additions that make what we already own more Eco-friendly. Using a Eco friendly shower head is one way you can save water, these shower heads lower the water pressure which in turns mean using less water than you usually would. Another way would be using a toilet tank bank, these go into your toilet tank and cause it fill up faster with less water. Its kinda like when you get into a bath tub that is half full, the water rises without adding anymore. Simply having a nozzle on your water hose can go a long way toward saving some water, without one the water simply runs until you shut it off wasting tons of water.

Going green is not always easy but with these items it can make the transition way more simple and fulfilling.

Consider Using A Water Filter System Instead Of More Plastic

We all have to drink water to live, but do we have to use so much plastic to get this basic necessity? Tons of plastic is being discarded at an outrageous rate even with some of it being recycled it still becomes a burden of the future. I am firm believer that every bit counts and if enough people do something it will help. Getting yourself a water filter system is a great place to start, small or large saving any amount of plastic usage is a huge plus. In home water filtration systems can cost some money but in the long run you will be saving money and the environment, same with the small counter top or faucet filter. No need to buy plastic water bottles since you can refill yours over and over for free. I want to list a few options below you can look it, these range from sink conversions to counter top jug filters. Thanks for going green, Together we can all do our part.
