Answer
What can households in Mallorca do to save water during a shortage?
Households in Mallorca can reduce water use in small but practical ways, such as taking shorter showers, running washing machines only when full and limiting toilet flushing where possible. Collecting rainwater and using stored water for non-essential tasks can also help. These steps do not solve the wider shortage, but they can ease pressure on the supply.
