Happy World Water Day! 💧

World Water Day was established by the United Nations to celebrate water, and raise awareness of the 2 billion people currently living without access to safe water.

Did you know:
- An estimated 60% of South Africa’s clean water is being lost and wasted through poor infrastructure.
- Every year, South Africa loses over R7 billion due to water leaks from pipes and reservoirs.
- It is predicted that South Africa's water demand will outstrip supply by 2030 - that’s only eight years away!

What can you do?
- Monitor and try to minimize how much water you are consuming.
- Find and fix leaks!
- Use alternative water sources where possible (ie. collecting rainwater or greywater)

Check out our website to learn more about our ICEmeter Pulse, which can be easily retrofitted to your water meter and is designed to monitor water consumption and detect leaks: www.macrocommrts.co.za
