Open your eyes, look in front, look at the back, look at any angle and you will see something that is an engineer's creation.

Engineers have been making things possible that others could only imagine. It perfectly makes sense to have a common place for engineers from around the world where they can share ideas, innovate, & help each other. Engineers are eternal, with the younger at 62 & the youngest at 17, the CEan gang consists of working professionals, students, entrepreneurs, CEOs, professors, geeks & nerds.

Some suggestions -
1. No baths on weekends (I know, couldnt resist though)
2. Eat more salads, more healthy and makes you feel less thirsty
3. Brush with the faucet closed
4. Grow a beard!!
5. Bath using a bucket! Or just head off to the beach instead!!
6. Keep your surroundings neat and tidy (lesser amount of jhadu and pochha required)

Unnecessary wastage should be avoided.
Taps should be checked out for leaks.
Rain water harvesting systems should be implemented at every home.
Number of borewells is on the rise which has resulted in decrease in the level of water table..So that could be reduced to some extent..
Plant more trees(if not,atleast dont cut them)..
Overflowing from tanks should be strictly avoided..

This is a very good point. We could collect hundreds of litres of water easily, and filter them! I wonder why this isnt implemented in large scale?
