There is a lot of waste water generated at water points in schools as students drink water and there is unavoidable spillage. This water usually channeled to the drain can alternatively be channeled to the nearest flower bed or at least stored for appropriate usage later.
Picture alongside is from a rural school in Ropar, Punjab which has made troughs below the
water points and the water collected in these troughs is then channelised to the flower beds alongside. As part of the Green Schools Programme of CSE, they blocked the outlet of these troughs and found the volume of these troughs to find out the amount of water reused by the school.
In city schools, water coolers are usually at the same location on each floor…water outlets from these can be channelised into a common tank.

Implementing separate wastewater troughs at drinking water points is a commendable initiative ensuring hygiene and safety. It minimizes contamination risks, upholding sanitation standards, and prioritizing the well-being of communities accessing clean drinking water.
