The water authorities are calling on the people of Israel to take care to cut out as much waste of water as possible and to lessen their usage of water as much as possible. After 5 consecutive years of drought, the water situation in Israel is at its worst ever (in the 70 years of measuring) with all water levels being registered at historic lows. Minister Yuval Steinitz says that our water reserves are meant for a year or two years worth of water, not for 5, so the situation is currently extremely dire.

While they are looking for more solutions, they continue with desalinization and other solutions currently in effect.

To that end, the water authorities are calling on the public to put forth efforts to conserve more water. They suggest fixing any leaks that one might have in a home and not let them continue, such as toilet or faucet leaks - a dripping faucet can waste up to 60 liters of water a day. They encourage the public to flush using the small handle on the toilet, saving 18 liters a day. They are discussions with the various local authorities about limiting the usage of water in public gardens and parks. They ask for people to make efforts to shorten their showers by 2 minutes.

The obvious question is, if you already take just a two minute shower, should you stop showering altogether? if you take a 4 minute shower, can you get by on a 2 minute shower?
