Conservation choices
Yes, I agree we all need to do our part in conserving water. But, we will live much happier lives if we can understand this as well. If I chose to water my lawn instead of flushing the toilet every time I use it, or wait until my dishwasher is full or whatever other water saving things I do, it is my own business.
The proof is in the pudding. We just received our water bill and in comparison to the same time in 2013 we are under the mandated 36% reduction. We don’t need to be the water police for the neighborhood. Most cities have personnel to do that for us.
Just do your best and lead by example. If their willing to risk paying a fine. That’s on them.
