What would be the best way to conserve water?

People should have neighborhood block parties, aka bathing parties. Do it once a week; you would save a lot of water. The only reason I’m answering this question is I hope to meet people who think the same way.

Get your priorities straight. Don’t scapegoat the homeowners. I love water. I love drinking it. I love swimming in it. We all have to do our part conserving water, but the city needs to fix its own house before charging at someone else’s house.

Then I use that water to water my plants. As far as the toilet, if it’s yellow, let it mellow. If it’s brown, flush it down. But I don’t necessarily abide by that myself. I’m not going to leave urine in the toilet when we have guests but I will if it’s just my husband.
