In my business we find homeowners who are losing water through two sources. The first is old swimming pools leaking around fittings or through structural cracks. The other more notorious loss of water is due to evaporation. Most homeowners have no idea how much water they’re losing. I usually recommend that they buy a solar pool cover. A pool cover can capture and retain almost 70% of the water loss due to the effects of evaporation. We cover a lot of these ideas in our site

You hit the right question at the right time. Many school today are having a essay writing contest about water conservation to support the global warning campaign.

Triage will happen as natural consequence of the blind commercial greed that inspires most of the economic development happening around the World. But if people would THINK AND PLAN, instead of impulsively following the advertisements, life could be a joy for everyone. Instead, the human race greedily plunges toward ecocide and self-extinction. On a shrinking planet a growing economy has no future.
