April 15 - Friday, No Impact Week (Water)

This day was pretty eye opening for me. I've always thought I was pretty good at conserving water: carry around a reusable water bottle, take shorter showers. Pretty simple. But reading through the how to guide about the water day there is so much wasted water. I never thought about how much water is wasted from toilet flushing or how much water could be reused for other things. In cooking on this day I tried to reuse my water. I made pasta and veggies so I first boiled the pasta and then used the same water to steam some vegetables. This is such an easy way to conserve water and I feel like I can easily implement this into my every day routines.
