The products we find in supermarkets are often manufactured using a lot of water. In order to help us make smart choices when it comes to our purchases and avoid wasting resources, Holdup and Bloo Nation have created a new kind of eco-conscious street art.

Their ingenious wall made entirely of 1,200 empty recycled water tanks makes a powerful statement, Inhabitat informs.

The giant blue “Waving Wall” placed in Chalkwell, Britain seeks to change consumer habits, by showing people how to preserve water without compromising their daily activities.

The bottles incorporated in the massive structure have a capacity of 22.800 liters, exactly as much water as manufacturers use to produce only two pairs of jeans.

Since water has become a precious scarce resource, such creative campaigns are welcomed worldwide. Even if the “Waving Wall” may not succeed in revealing traceable results, it will definitely make us think about turning off the tap more often.
