I read an article in Popular Mechanics in Sept 2007 about water conservation that really opened my eyes. Ever since then I have made efforts to decrease my 'water footprint' as you might call it. Even something as simple as a low flow toilet and turning off the water when you brush your teeth can save a ton of water.
That said, I love long showers especially when it is cold out.
The whole concept of grey water reuse is something that really interests me though. Using a simple storage and filtration system to reuse 'mostly clean water' and or rain water for stuff such as toilet and plant watering is something I would love to implement, if it ever became financially viable.
