Fresh water is important to life. The requirement for fresh water is increasing every day. The increased heat content of the earth and atmosphere and the consequent evaporation is decreasing the availability of fresh water and is threatening life and its existence. This situation calls for development of nature compatible, water harvesting and water conservation technique. The article presents a new simple practicable innovative technique for water conservation. This technique uses the hour glass concept to catch and store water and reduce the evaporation, thus extending decreasing the water stress.
