Sailee, I have recently started following the blog and I am very happy to see that my thoughts on water consumption, human's behavior towards water and our future are resonating with your post.

I would like to share my observations about majority of people I have observed in my apartment society or office premise:-

1. People never felt the need to save water or use effectively till they face water shortage. They give important through tough times and back to old ways.

2. In apartments, car washing consumes 10 to 15 liters per car per day.

3. If people start storing RO outlet water (effectively), they can save 50+ liter everyday (if family of 4 adults consuming RO water).

Looking forward to more posts on understanding the root cause of water mismanagement and our collective response to it.

Thanks for sharing this. Are there more solutions on increasing clean water supply? Also my understanding of water supply in Mumbai especially is that its not directly potable and still needs filtration. I understand we still need to pay on consumption basis but lack of potability should discount the rate consumers pay.
