Three fourth of earth consists of water, but only 1% of it is fresh water. It is this fresh water that we need to drink, wash, irrigate farms etc. Fresh water, therefore, is very important for our survival. However, the fresh water level has started to drop across various countries. Regions like Southern California are facing problems of water shortage. Hence water conservation is necessary to safeguard this fresh water from drying up completely. There are various ways of conserving water... e.g -

Install a low flow toilet and shower head

Reuse grey water from kitchen and bathroom to water you garden / lawn

Fix leaking faucets and sprinklers

Turn off faucets while brushing your teeth etc

For more knowledge on the importance of water conservation refer to the link given below.
There is need to conserve water because of the fact that people use up fresh water at a faster rate than it can be naturally replenished.
