That's the challenge being set by ABC Local Radio in a nationwide initiative launched today to encourage people to experience what it's like to live with a limited amount of water. The average person uses well over 200 litres a day so trying to use just 40 is quite a feat.
Whether or not you successfully meet the challenge, the organisers hope that by spending more time thinking about our water usage at home, we can better understand the value of water and some of the problems facing those who are living with serious water restrictions.
