The answers to the first part of this question will be variable, but will likely come from this list:
-Use water-saving showerheads, toilets, and faucet aerators.
-Take short showers, and shower rather than take baths.
-Repair household water leaks.
-Turn off sink faucets when brushing teeth or shaving.
-Wash only full loads, or use lowest possible load setting for small loads.
-Use grey water for yard and plant watering.
-Wash cars using a bucket of soapy water and spray from hose only to rinse.
-Only use commercial carwashes that recycle water.
-Replace lawn with native plants that use little water.
-Water lawns only in early a.m. or evening.
-Use drip irrigation and mulch for gardens and flowerbeds.

These actions are all important because in the United States about half of water that is drawn from surface or groundwater for our use is wasted.
