Because of laziness the roof caves in,and because of negligent hands the house leaks. – Ecclesiastes 10: 18
Fix That Leak—Why Every Drop Counts
A small leak might not seem like a big deal, but over time, it can waste thousands of liters of water. Think about it—one dripping tap can waste up to 20 liters a day! That’s water we can’t afford to lose, especially in a world where droughts and shortages are becoming more common.
Mending leaks isn’t just about saving water—it also saves money on water bills and helps protect the environment. When we waste water, we also waste the energy used to pump, clean, and transport it. That means more pressure on natural resources and a bigger carbon footprint.
As Christians, we have a responsibility to be smart about our water use. Checking for leaks, fixing dripping taps, and reporting pipe bursts in our communities are small but powerful actions. Every drop saved makes a difference. Let’s be the generation that values water before it’s too late!
St Thomas Rondebosch, Cape Town had a problem with the pipes of their irrigation that was leaking they immediately called the service provider to come and fix all leaks. First all the water had to be shut down on the premises so that maintenance could occur.
