It's a must for me to save water. I've been trained that way since I learned doing household chores. Often times I'm using a small basin on washing the dishes so as to save water. Sooner or later many parts in the world may run out of water.

i don't keep it running when i don't use it. i don't like wasting everything. even i can pay it, i don't wanna waste it especially when it's water. water is quite abundant today but who know when will we have some kind of a water shortage. some areas are now experiencing waster shortage so sooner or later, when we don't conserve water, we might not like what will happen.

No,I really make it a point to shut it off once in a while to save water and to minimize an increase in the water bill. :)

No I don't leave the water running. I fill up one side of the sink with dishwashing liquid, and the other side with clean cold water to rinse the dishes in. We do have a dishwasher, so I really don't have to clean my own dishes, just rinse them off well.

yah it is such a waste of water. like for example, there are those who keep the water running when they are brushing their teeth! eeewwrrr! Water is such a priceless commodity and we would soon be running out of it if we dont conserve it!

I don't leave the water running when I'm washing the dishes I shut it off once in a while. I get mad everytime I see my housemaid leaving the water running and she is outside the house. There are people who doesn't care if the water is running the whole time especially if they are not the one who is paying for the water bill.
