Dishwashers
Automatic dishwashers use about 15 to 30 gallons of water per cycle, so make the most of each load by filling the dishwasher to capacity. If you wash dishes by hand, fill the sink with water and add soap rather than running the water as you wash. Refill the sink to rinse instead of running each dish under the faucet.

Drinking water
Thirsty? Keep a pitcher of water in the fridge so you don't need to run the faucet for a cold glass of water.
