Real Life, home Water Saving Environment ideas!!!

Given I have been tackled about the home Environment, What have I actually done for water saving? Well thrash me with a damp lettuce leaf !!!
I note below, a short list of things I have done.
1   Always chosen highly rated WELLS water appliances.
2   Installed  Front loading washer, which saves 60% of the water compared to a top loader.
3   Built grey water recycling systems.
4   Installed highly rated, modern dual flush cisterns. These use 3.5 litres a  flush, saving a home some 35,000 litres a year.

5   Built Rainwater tanks for the garden. Connected the home tanks to the internal cisterns.
6   Removed garden sprinklers and replaced with a drip irrigation system.
7   Replaced taps and shower heads with aerated low flow models.
8   For the garden beds, I have spread tonnes of red gum mulch.
9   Removed delicate plants like Daphne, Chrysanthenum, Azaleas, replaced them with hardy native plants.
10  Established low growing Herbal and couch lawns.
11  Check all my water using appliances with water efficiency websites. Like www.smartwater.com.au
12  Planted deep watering Agricultural  pipes, for new bushes.
13   Built gravel bed gardens.
14  When planting new bushes I place a large rock, adjacent as a rock mulch.
15  Built mulch covering for  water saving garden beds.
Thus I have made a start to reducing and monitoring water use.
