Transcript of WATER: Stop polluting, start recycling
WATER: Stop polluting, start recycling● Every day, we use about
● A shower = 30 to 80 litres of water
● A bath = 150 to 200 litres of water
● A dishwasher = 25 to 40 litres of water
● The toilet consumes 10 litres of water
● Washing the carneeds about 200 litres of water
● A sink that leaks fora day represents a loss of 100 litres
How Water Is Recycled
By Recycling, You Save.. .
● With the previous installation, you can recycle around 600 Liters of water by square meters of your roof.( 60000 Liters per year for a 100m2 roof)
● Even in summer you can recycle 40 Liters of water by m2 .
● This recycled water can be used to wash your car , or to water your garden; you can also use it for your toilets or your washing machine.
Chemical Pollution
There are no more purification stations so water isn't clear because of industries
who throw away effluents. Salt and minerals are eliminated, it's the leaking of the soils who help water to be clean. Today
there is no more oxygen so the water is blurred.
Domestic Pollution
Washing water and toilet water are
pollution (washing powders,chemical
products,...).
Negligences
Negligences are things we throw away (oils,
batteries,...)
Bacteria and Virus
Human and animal rejections are evacuated in watercourse.
