Which of the following is a correct way to conserve water?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Closing taps after use
Closing a tap immediately after use prevents water from flowing away needlessly and is an easy conservation habit. Leaving a tap or hose running wastes usable water. Clean leftover water may often be reused for suitable purposes, such as watering plants, when safe and practical, rather than being sent directly into a drain.
