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.

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.
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.

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.
