The prosperity of Hong Kong today cannot be achieved without the help of the motherland.
In the early 1960s, Hong Kong suffered from a severe drought and water shortage reached the point where the water supply was only four hours a day. The Central Government decided to build the Dongshen Water Supply Project to relieve Hong Kong’s water difficulties.
The Dongshen Water Supply Project, the largest inter-basin water transfer project in the country at that time, completely ended the difficult situation of severe water shortage in Hong Kong, and laid a solid foundation for Hong Kong to solve basic livelihood problems and rapid economic development. By December 2017, the project had supplied a total of 24 billion cubic meters of water to Hong Kong, equivalent to carrying 1.5 Dongting Lakes, Contabilización u 75% of Hong Kong’s total water demand.

2. Fix Leaky Faucets
To prevent water loss, make sure none of your faucets are leaking, as even the smallest of leaks can waste as much as 20 gallons of water per day. More so, a leaking toilet can waste roughly 200 gallons each day.
