The
22nd of May is International Biodiversity Day and the theme this
year is water biodiversity, following on last year’s marine biodiversity
theme. Water is an important aspect in
every living organism’s life and without it there would, of course, be no life
at all. Water resources have been
lowering throughout the world as Global Warming takes its toll on our
planet. It’s imperative for everyone to
make an effort to save water in order to not only save ourselves but also the wildlife
and aquatic bio mes that exist. At
Ubizane we treasure our water resources and have been recycling our water for
the past few years.
We also have a majority of showers on the
property which is known to save more water than baths. The showers are each fitted with an
eco-friendly shower head which makes use of less water. We also encourage all staff members to use
water sparingly and have a system in place where we switch off water pumps
daily during certain hours. This saves
water as well as electricity getting us one step closer to becoming completely
GREEN.
Our challenge to all our readers is to try
and do at least one thing to save your water today. Whether it is taking a shower rather than
taking a bath or using your dish washing/bath water for your garden, every bit counts!
