We all know that 70% of the earth is water.But only 1% of it is clean water.People can't live without water.So it's important for everyone to save water.Here are some tips for saving water.

Indoors:

●Turn the tap off while you are brushing your teeth,washing your hands,doing dishes,taking a shower and so on.

●Catch the cold water that comes out of the tap or shower while you are waiting for the hot water.Use it to water plants or wash your toilet.

●Don't wash clothes too often.When you use the washing machine,make sure there is not only a pair of pants in it.

Outdoors:

●Water the garden and grass at night.This gives water more time to get into the earth without evaporation from the day's heat.

●Plant small trees under big trees.This will help stop evaporation and gives some shade(树阴) for your plants.You can also plant a shade garden under trees.
