According to the EWS-WWF, this campaign is one of the most ambitious and effective water saving campaigns in the world. The water saver technician takes just few minutes to install the gadget at your home at no cost to you. This simple gadget can prevent millions of liters of water from going to waste.
How it works
Even though we may not notice the difference in water fluctuations, water comes out of the tap at a constantly changing rate. This usually happens when more than one tap is used to draw water from the same source. An example of this would be when you have your shower and the washbasin tap on at the same time; you will soon notice that the tap starts running more slowly.
A water saver helps regulate the flow of water, ensuring that the water flows at a constant rate. For you it means that whether the pressure is high or low, you will still have the same flow of water.
How can this help save water? Well, believe it or not, an incredible amount of water and energy is saved in the process.

Glide the Trikke
Trikke, a three wheel transporter, can be manually powered by the rider or by a longlasting lithium battery. These new generation cycles are foldable and with their three wheel design are said to be stable and safe for riders.
Manually powered, Trikke works by the shift of body weight from side to side. After a little practice, this action becomes intuitive and delivers a speed up to 28 km/h. The design of Trikke allows you to get maximum momentum as you move in different directions.
For those of you who are keen on an effortless ride home, the lithium battery operated Trikke comes with an accelerator and brake on the handlebars to give you better control. Battery operated Trikkes can last around 30 km and require two hours to charge the battery.
Trikke looks cool and fun but most importantly reduces carbon emissions and non-renewable resources released every day by cars. Trikke gives out no emissions and can easily take you to work without being stuck in traffic or having to worry about parking.
