WATER CONSUPTION
Kíra -Hungary,
Balázs -Hungary,
Gregor -Slovenia,
Laia -Spain
Possible reasons,
why it varies:
Kíra :50litres,
Balázs :55litres
Although we don't
know the Slovenian
and Spanish student's
comsumption, but we
think in these countries
people use more
water.
The richer a country is,
the less conscious.
It's easy because we
live our life consciously
that means we have a
shower brush our teeth
with out running water.
BEST WAYS TO SAVE WATER
- Having a shower instead of
having a bath.
- Do not wash up in running
water.
-Do not brush your teeth in
running water.
- Collect rain water in order to
water plants.

WATER CONSUPTION
Kaapo - Finland
Marco - Spain
Kinga - Poland
Possible reasons,
why it varies:
Kaapo : 185 litres
Marco : 88 litres
Kinga : 109 litres
We think that people in
some countries have just
other lifestyle than the
other and in some
countries people need
more water than in the
other countries. In
example, in Finland
people use a lot of water
for cooking, in Spain, in
contrast, people don't do
this.
Yes, it's easy if you
know ways to do it and
you remember about it.
Sometimes we forget
about it and then we use
more water than we
need. So it's easy if you
just remember about
ways to save water.
BEST WAYS TO SAVE WATER
- Turn off the tap while brushing
your teeth
- Take a shorter shower
- Fix a drippinng tap (if you have a
dripping tap)
- Load the washing maschine full
-Load the dishwasher full

WATER CONSUPTION
Daniela-Spain
Gönczi – Hungary
Milan- Hungary
Possible reasons,
why it varies:
about 70 liters per
person per day
Reasons can be the
availability of clean water,
water cost and it you cant
drink tap water.
It can be easy to save water
with simple things like turning
off the water when in shower
and not using it or eating a bit
less or organic meat. But it can
be difficult or more complicated
for some people or its just hard
to remember.
BEST WAYS TO SAVE WATER
-Trying no to do laundury
everyday so maybe wearing the
same jeans for two days
-Turning off the tap or shower
when not in need
- Buy cacti so you don't need to
water plants as often .

have a shower instead

WATER CONSUPTION
Maura - Spain, Ana
- Slovenia,
Stanisław - Poland
Possible reasons,
why it varies:
Maura : 250l
Ana: 1250l
Stanisław : 60l
The reasons could be
that Spain is in the south
of Europe and they need
to take care of the water
,because they have
drought and Poland for
example, have many rains
in autumn.
It is easy because many people
waste it in very easy to stop
things like broken tap or non
turned off tap while brushing their
teeth. If you try, saving water is
very easy and 'not invasive' for
normal life style. Of course it can
be hard when your family dont
want to save water but you can
try to talk with them.
BEST WAYS TO SAVE WATER
-Reparing broken tap -Shorter
time under shower. - Turning
on washing machine only
when it's full
- Closing tap when you're
brushing your theeth.
