Analysis of theconductedquestionnaireconsisting of three parts: - For students (12 questions)- For parents (6 questions)- For grandparents (6 questions)
Does your family use water economically? Czy w Twojej rodzinie stosuje się/stosowało się sposoby oszczędzania wody?
Our grandparents weren’t aware of the problems caused by water overconsumption. Some of them didn’t use to save water at all. Others, who lived far from wells, used to save water in order to avoid long walks to a well. But everyone in those times had a tank for rainwater and used it regularly. Our parents started to save water because it was getting more and more expensive, so they needed to save money above all. Some of them kept the tradition of water tanks, others were getting used to small daily steps that greatly reduce water consumption. Nowadays there aren’t water tanks anymore, but modern technology helps us to reduce water consumption with appliances such as flow regulators, dishwashers and dual flush toilets. Problems linked with water overconsumption are more discussed nowadays. 98% of students think water is a very important factor of our everyday life and are aware of the problems caused by water overconsumption. Water-saving economy is now part of civil education: families and insitutions consider it as an important element of civic awareness.
