Gray Water in The Home

For many years people have been trying to limit the amount of wastes they produce. Water is often a resource that is taken for grated. Even though more than 70% of earth’s surface is covered by water only 3% is fresh water and less than 1% is drinkable. On Long Island we rely almost entirely on water trapped beneath the ground in aquifers. As they become more and more polluted it is important that we revolutionize the way we use and treat our water resources. There are two types of water black and gray water that we produce. While black water is more difficult to treat gray water is easily re-used. It can be then utilized for anything from gardening, washing cloths or even flushing the toilet. This can cut average water consumption by more than half and create rethink the way we use water. By creating partnerships with companies and government incentives filtering systems can be purchased at a marginal cost compared the environmental rewards. These systems are already being used in areas where water is more scarce
