Water Saving Stories Around Us 5, Water Saving Stories Around Us

The water used for washing clothes in our dormitory is used to support the bottom and flush the toilet.

A little story about water conservation.

Guo Shusen, 80, is a retired cadre of the Shanxi Provincial Bureau of Geology and Mining. Although he is approaching his old age, Lao Guo is still enthusiastic about water-saving propaganda activities, and is praised by the masses as a "water-saving pacesetter". In 1983, Guo Shusen stepped down from the position of party secretary of the Shanxi Provincial Institute of Geology.

He was very saddened to see the phenomenon of people wasting water on the street, so he came up with the idea of promoting water conservation, and through his words and deeds, he influenced his family and the people around him. In order to save water, Lao Guo replaced the toilet at home with a water-saving flush toilet, flushed the toilet with washing water and bath water, and watered the flowers with washing pots and dishes, reducing the family's water consumption from 6 tons per month to 1 ton. At present, the average water consumption of Taiyuan citizens is 100 to 150 liters per person per day, while the daily water consumption of Lao Guo's family is only 60 liters.

Therefore, when the meter reader of the water company recorded, he mistakenly thought that Lao Guo had done something on the water meter. Driven by Lao Guo, his wife and daughter, who originally didn't care about water conservation, also consciously joined the team of water conservation. Now, Lao Guo's daughter has also installed a water-saving toilet at home, and the wastewater from laundry, vegetable washing, and cooking is all reused, establishing a good trend of saving water for the whole family.

Since 2002, Shanxi Province has implemented a project to divert the Yellow River into Jinjin, which will replace 380,000 cubic meters of groundwater for Taiyuan City every year, which means that Taiyuan City will reduce the extraction of groundwater by 380,000 cubic meters per year. Hearing this news, Lao Guo was very happy. But, he said:

Whether it is the project of diverting the Yellow River into Jinjin or the south-to-north water diversion project, it can only solve the urgent need for a while. With the increasing population and rapid economic development, the situation of water scarcity will become more severe. Therefore, water conservation is not only an effective way to solve this problem, but also a great cause for future generations.

As he grew older, Lao Guo's physical condition was much worse than before, but he still told reporters: "As long as the society still needs me, I will carry the banner of water conservation." ”

Bang la, bla blah—" The water from the faucet flowed out, and I stood in front of the sink and washed my hands diligently, humming a little song in my mouth.

At this moment, my mother, who was standing next to me, couldn't stand it anymore, frowned, and reminded me loudly: "When washing your hands, the faucet should be turned on a little smaller, how many times have I told you!" I didn't think so, and thought to myself:

What are you doing with such a small device? How much can you save by saving a little water? Mom seemed to read my thoughts, paused, and then continued:

It's not that I'm stingy, each of us saves a drop of water every day, which not only saves water resources for the country, but also makes people in water-scarce areas no longer thirsty, why not?! "Yes, it's a pity that such clear water flows away in vain, if only it could be pooled and reused. "I quietly made a plan in my mind:

Starting today, I want to prove my determination to conserve water with practical actions.

Thinking of this, I found a plastic basin and put it in the washbasin, and every time I washed my hands, I accumulated the used water in the basin, and this water flowing into the basin could allow my mother to mop the floor. "What about dirty water that contains dust after mopping the floor? "By the way, you can flush the toilet."

I thought about it for a moment and quickly came up with a solution. I immediately found a few spare plastic buckets at home, put them in the bathroom, and poured the dirty water into the buckets, including rice washing water and vegetable washing water, for flushing toilets and mopping the floor. Bath water is one of the biggest wastes, so I found an extra-large laundry tub that I could use to wash my clothes, and the laundry waste water was poured into the bucket again for the next "work link" - flushing the toilet, which was both convenient and economical.

A month later, my mother waved the water bill and said to me happily: "Qianqian, you see, our family has achieved results in saving water!" "Really?

When I heard the news, I ran out of the room, grabbed the water bill from my mother's hand, and looked closely, and sure enough, my family's water consumption had been reduced from 18 tons to 10 tons. I hugged my mom so excitedly. I'm proud of my water savings results.

The growth of plants and the survival of animals are inseparable from water, and the survival of human beings is even more inseparable from water. Water is not inexhaustible, it is a finite resource, and it will not be wasted endlessly. The grace of dripping water should be reciprocated by springs, everyone is responsible for protecting and saving water resources, and let's start from now on to save water.

From one or two things to thrift, first tell and analyze, then develop into a benefit to the country and the people, and then rise to the height of the whole world without me.

This is the standard composition in China.
