Advice: go showering together!

amsterdam - The Belgians have a serious shortage of drinking water due to the drought. They now get the advice to share swimming pools in the garden, but even to shower together and save water.

Carl Heyrman says on behalf of the water companies in Belgium says to De Standaard that he counts on the creativity of the inhabitants to be economical.

Washing cars or spraying the lawn is in any case seriously discouraged. 'A shower consumes a lot less than a bath, we all know that. People can also take a shower together. '

According to him, water consumption is fifty percent higher than normal. As a result, the pipe pressure can drop to such an extent that nothing will come out of the tap.

It is still 'code yellow' in Belgium. With red, the water goes to ration. According to Heyrman, that is not yet the case.

According to the weather forecasts, there is little or no rain until the end of next week.
