    Collecting rainwater helped me understand how easy it is to save water and use it in a smart way. I think tasks like watering plants, cleaning outdoor areas, or washing the car could really benefit from using rainwater at home.

    It was hard to avoid things like plastic packaging and disposable items on Zero Waste Day. I learned that I use more single-use stuff than I realized, and I need to be more careful about my choices and plan ahead better.

    I learned that some people don’t have clean water because of things like dirty pipes or pollution. In my area, people in low-income neighborhoods are hurt the most. I can help by using less water, talking about the problem, and supporting local clean water efforts.
