In other words, the same ideals are being shared by what is commonly deemed the ecology

Water conservation can be defined as (a) any beneficial reduction in water loss, use or waste as well
as the preservation of water quality, (b) a reduction in water use accomplished by implementation of
water conservation or water efficiency measures or, (c) improved water management practices that
reduce or enhance the beneficial use of water. A water conservation measure is an action,
behavioural change, device, technology, or improved design or process implemented to reduce water
loss, waste, or use. Water efficiency is a tool of water conservation. That results in more efficient water
use and thus reduces water demand. The value and cost-effectiveness of a water efficiency measure
must be evaluated in relation to its effects on the use and cost of other natural resources (e.g. Energy
or chemicals). Water can be conserved in a lot of ways and most of us are aware of those means. It is
our duty to actually implement those in our daily life.
