Amid growing drought concerns, the City of Calgary is updating residents on its preparedness plan.
There are no serious water restrictions in the cards, but the City of Calgary will be doing its part to save water as dry conditions could mean drought throughout southern Alberta.
She said Calgarians have done well to conserve water over the past 20 years, which is significant when the city's grown by about half a million people in that time. In their yards, Calgarians are also asked to considering setting up a rain barrel and adding mulch to their garden to prevent water from evaporating too quickly from the soil.While it asks residents to adopt water-saving measures, the city will also be doing its part.
"It's really important we talk about what we are using our water for and why and are we using our water responsibly and sustainably," she said. Black says people should use the rule of six when thinking about water — six litres a minute for a shower, six litres a flush and six litres for a minute of running a faucet.14 of the 15 worst cities for air pollution in U.S. and Canada are north of the border: report
