BENNETT HARTGRAVE

There are lots of small adjustments and optimizations one can make in their life.

What ways can you limit product use to be water conscious?

Sometimes we have a few steps in our routine.

You can kind of make certain adjustments from one product, or combining a few different things into one, to reduce the number of steps and reduce the amount of water used.

ALEX BAUM

I drink from a reusable water bottle; I have an Owala.

What else do you do to limit water use?

I never leave the water on while I’m brushing my teeth, and I try to take shorter showers.

NATE DARY

First of all, I don’t wait for the shower to warm up.

I get in, use it and turn it off.

I take quick showers.

I don’t leave the water running when I’m brushing my teeth.

I try to recycle water if I can.

How do you recycle water?

We have a small jug to recycle rainwater.

It’s filtered and we use it to water our plants.

TRICIA KIEHN

Really basic things like turning off the water while I’m brushing my teeth and taking shorter showers.

I think the greatest way is probably to keep an eye on watering your lawn.

Have you adopted these habits?

I’ve definitely tried.

We actually don’t water our backyard at all right now.

The only thing we water is the plants in our front yard and our tiny front lawn.

TAYLOR MCMILLAN

I’m a big fan of the great big, hot pink Stanley cup that I’ve got, so I just usually refill that two or three times a day.

What inspired you to start using it?

I started using it about two years ago.

I found it for very cheap, and that was the main motivator, I guess.
