A silent toilet leak can waste from 30-500 gallons of water per day. So get up and FIX THE LEAK!

According to a recent research, catching a toilet leak at its earliest stage can save a lot of water. It also says that even a silent leak can waste from 30 to 500 gallons of water per day. Its an interesting irony how much we talk about water wastage here and there (from overflow of motors, from continuous running of taps, etc) and we fail to ponder upon a toilet leak which is so frequently used (and to which we are so closely connected, thanks to the natures call). Imagine how much of water can be saved if we are a bit more aware, if we care a little (even just to check whether theres a mere leak in our toilet or not).

thanks for appreciating...but the research part was almost nothing, especially compared to the message that short simple fact carried...but the hardest is to be aware and as i said care a bit about all these daily wastages..
