Answer 1

Answer: (B)

Using a bucket of water

Water conservation is the need of the hour. It is the practice to use water efficiently and reduce unnecessarily water wastage. Water can be conserved by adopting various methods like:

1) Using water that is drained out from the washing machine to wash the toilet.

2) Closing the tap while brushing our teeth.

3) Using water collected from rain or ACs to water the plants.

4) Using a bucket of water for bathing.

In order to conserve water people should avoid using showers. As for an average shower 20gallons of water gets wasted, which is not at all sustainable for the environment.
