I live in Florida and we went through a drought last year with water restrictions on watering the lawns, car washes, etc.
One suggestion that came up was rain barrels. They had and I believe still do have classes, and a chance to purchase the barrels at a lower cost. Some people prefer to make their own.
We were also encouraged to collect water from running water from showers, kitchen faucets and to use it to flush with. Sometimes you are running your water to rinse off itmes or to wait for hot water to come out and mean while it's going down the sink. I learned to use that water for my plants outside.
