* Drag the correct answer into all target fields

Urban areas face significant challenges in water conservation due to dense populations and limited green spaces. However, innovative strategies are emerging to address these issues. One approach involves the installation of systems on rooftops to capture rainwater, which can then be used for purposes. Another method is the creation of green spaces that serve dual purposes: enhancing urban biodiversity and acting as barrier to reduce runoff. Cities are also smart sensors to monitor water usage and identify leaks quickly. Finally, public awareness campaigns are crucial in encouraging residents to adopt water-saving practices, making them an essential in urban water conservation efforts.
