Another way individuals can become better environmental stewards is by conserving water use whenever possible - this includes fixing plumbing leaks promptly and looking into low-flow showerheads/toilets if you own your home; using a bucket when washing dishes rather than running water continuously; avoiding activities that require excess water such as filling up swimming pools; planting drought-resistant plants so less watering is needed; turning off faucets while brushing teeth/shaving etc., using greywater systems in garden irrigation etc.
