A river runs through the Usangu Plains in Tanzania - and it's at the heart of a big question: who controls the water?
💧 Farming, food, and fairness don’t always go together when big plans ignore local needs.
Watch researcher Frances Cleaver tell the story this #WaterSavingWeek: bit.ly/4k6m7S7
Water-Saving Week – an annual online event dedicated to increasing understanding of water issues.
This campaign highlights why reducing water waste is crucial for tackling climate change, protecting our environment, and supporting healthy local communities.

💧 Inspired by #WaterSavingWeek, Steve’s making every drop count!
He’s reusing 12-18 litres of water from his washing-up bowl each day to keep his newly seeded lawn thriving and his water butt full in case it’s needed later in the year. 🌱
ICYMI - it was #WaterSavingWeek last week and our Head of Environmental Sustainability spoke to Andrew Tucker of Thames Water re. #WaterEfficiency & managing water demand. Read the article in Construction Management:

Partially filling your washing machine or dishwasher means you're wasting water and heat. #WaterSavingWeek
Three things we did this week 🚨
We held two of our #FuelPoverty Forums, supported #WaterSavingWeek and spoke at a Women in Retrofit conference.
It's #WaterSavingWeek and today is dishwashing day. So what's your approach to rinsing? Compulsory or optional? A running tap can use 8 litres of water a second!
It's #WaterSavingWeek, here are our top tips for saving water 💧
- A dripping tap can waste up to 90L weekly, equal to a full bath!
- Keep a bottle of tap water in the fridge to avoid wasting up to 10L daily waiting for the tap to run cold.
- A £5 tap aerator can save £25 annually!

We all love a nice long hot shower, but try to reduce your shower time. You can save money by turning off the shower while shampooing.

Did you know we have a #waterfootprint?
Direct water is the water that we drink, wash our hands, shower in - easy to track.
Indirect water is the amount needed to produce food or commodities - it's still part of our water footprint.

@ChilternSociety share a bath for #watersavingweek!
September 2019: 67% of the total length of #chalkstream habitat in the Chilterns AONB was dry.
#Chilterns has the highest per capita domestic water use in the UK
@Chilternstreams
#WaterSavingWeek - Low water flows are one of the biggest threats to #biodiversity within the River Chess, affecting fish populations, invertebrates, plants & mammals.
It is our responsibility as a society to be working towards more sustainable water use.
@Chilternstreams
#Savewater to save our chalk streams!
The Chilterns has some of the most threatened #chalkstreams on the planet.
The #Chilterns has the highest per capita domestic water use in the UK - abstraction causes low flows & dry streams.
