1000 Flowers for the Planet - #191 Install Dual- or Low-Flush Toilets

According to information provided by my local council, a full toilet flush can use up to 15 litres of water, whereas a half flush uses less than 6 litres. Most of the time we only need to use a half flush, which would save 60% of water usage if the full flush was always used. This is a substantial difference. Water is our most valuable resource and needs to be used wisely. Install either a dual-flush system and always use the half-flush when you can, or install a low-flush toilet for a similar result. Water savings will also reduce your expenses, put less pressure on dams that support cities and decrease the pressure on our environment to provide us with water supplies.
