“I live on a ranch, so we have our own private water source. We have a 18,000 gallon water reserve for back up so we have always had to be water conscience since it is our own water.”

Veronica Dise-Hodge, 49, Psychology

“I own a house in the Antioch hills, so I try to conserve as much as possible. Shower time at two minutes, only do the dishes when the dishwasher is full, recycle water for my plants and brushing teeth.”

John Mcveigh, 23, Anthropology

 “I’ve always conserved water to some degree: while brushing teeth, always taken two minute showers and only flushing the toilet when necessary.”

Jenna Forslih, 21, Theater Arts

“Strictly 10 minute showers. Also, when I brush my teeth, I’ll shut off water while brushing. Not entirely sure if this conserves water, but I don’t buy water bottles.”

Alexis Moorhead, 19, Animation & Illustration

“Got a letter informing about water usage, so now we really have to start conserving, taking shorter showers and what not.”
