WATCH: Easy and creative ways to save water this summer
Hi neighbours. We're still being asked to conserve water after one of the driest years on record.
Following a dry 2019, the region saw a record 40 days with no rain in January and February, paving the way for water restrictions that would continue into December.
Despite the restrictions and Aucklanders being the most efficient water users in New Zealand, the dam levels are still low and Watercare is asking everyone to try and save 20 litres per day.
We’ve put together a list of easy ways you can save water around your home, as well as a few ideas for if you’re willing to go the extra mile.
