Hi! Being a native Californian I know the drought protocols so well. First and foremost, super short showers, turning the water off between shampoo, shaving, no brushing teeth in showers, and no baths except if multiple people use it. Have a bucket in the shower to catch water and then use this on favorite suffering plants. Only flush the toilet when absolutely necessary. “If it’s yellow let it mellow, if it’s brown flush it down.” Is a childhood mantra for any one raised there! Always have rain barrels catch every precious precipitation drop. Fill bird baths with water from your rain barrels. Put indoor plants outside during a shower. I really didn’t think I would be doing this again here in New England- the rains have always amazed me here and part of the reason I have put roots down here. Sadly, Climate Emergency is here and now. And we can’t run to any where and hide from it. We need to stop burning fossil fuel for a livable planet! Call Gov. Baker today and get him to sign the Climate Bill on his desk! Warm regards, Staci
