Water Usage and Awareness

In our people and many parts of the world, importance is not given to spending water and maintaining its efficiency, unfortunately.

The fact that the bill for an unlimited resource like the Internet is cheaper than water creates a separate contradiction.

Some brands and companies (Finish, National Geographic, etc.) are making documentaries under the name of “a day with 25 liters” together with some artists known by the public to create water awareness.

The work they do is really important and valuable. However, it can be ensured that more people learn about this issue by talking more about the news channels or by sharing posters on social media (importance of water, problems that can be experienced in its absence, etc.).

So what are these precautions and things to watch out for?

Turning off the water while soaping our hair

Not pressing the siphons more than necessary

Turning off the water while washing our hands and brushing our teeth

Or, water shortage can be avoided with different projects (rain harvest, etc.)

These are some of the measures that are very simple but can be very effective when applied by all individuals in our society.

By paying attention to these precautions, you can make a great contribution to preventing the drying of Istanbul dams in our country and the possible water shortage in the future.

Of course, this issue will not only affect us but also the natural balance. The drying up of dams and lakes may cause the death of many aquatic creatures, and perhaps disappear from the world.

As I said before, you can watch the “25 Liters” documentary released in cooperation with Finish and National Geographic. If you want to calculate the amount of water you use in real terms, you can go to “yarininsuyu.com”. You can access more detailed information on the website you visit and open the door to a better future.

Thank you.
