A simple gesture can help save thousands of liters of water a year. A detergent brand has come up with a great idea.
The human being is a contradictory species. We brag about sending robots to Mars or other amazing scientific achievements, but we are not able to ensure the future of the planetor our own kind, because we are destroying it.
Turkey is a good example. The UN ensures that the country will not be able to supply itself with water in 2030 due to high consumption, and climate change. and yet 46% of the population have no intention of changing their habits to save water. It is not an accusation, in the rest of the world the same thing happens. With water or combustion cars, for example.
But to a Turkish design agency called havas istanbulin collaboration with the popular cleaning brand Finish, has come up with a brilliant idea: a bottle of dishwasher with a second use that saves 35,000 liters of water per year per family. You can see it in this video:
As the video explains, a lot of water is wasted in Turkey. The tap is left running often, or the dishes are rinsed and then washed in the dishwasher, although it is not necessary.
havas istanbul agency has developed a new stopper for the Finish dishwasher bottlewhich has a great dual use: when the bottle runs out, the stopper transforms into a filter that screws onto the kitchen sink faucet.
this filter reduces water flow from 13 to 4 liters per minute. Making calculations based on actual consumption data in Turkey, a family using this filter would save no less than 35 tons of water per year. Bearing in mind that a kilo of water is a litre, we are talking about save 35,000 liters of water per family, annually.
Finish already has the new cap ready, and expects to start mass manufacturing it by the end of the year. His estimation is that at least one million homes will install itso by doing the math, they will save an incredible amount of 35,000 million liters of water. All thanks to a simple cap.
It is true that in Spain for a long time most taps already come with filters and aerators that serve to save water. But in countries where they are not yet available, these kinds of initiatives really help to avoid huge waste.
