MANILA (Reuters) - Couples in the Philippine capital
have been asked to start sharing the tub at bath time
as part of a conservation drive.

"Start sharing baths with your partner to conserve
water," the environment department advised the parched
capital's 12 million residents.

Unseasonably dry weather has depleted water levels in
the main reservoirs supplying the metropolis and
officials were meeting on Friday to consider rationing
and other measures.

Environment Secretary Elisea Gozun warned things could
get worse before the monsoon season begins in May and
said officials were "sounding the alarm early to avoid
a water shortage."

As a haze of pollution masked blue skies over Manila
on Friday, the weather bureau said fewer typhoons than
normal at the end of last year caused water levels to
drop and that the city could not expect a rainy
reprieve for several months.

To hurry things along, officials plan to start
cloud-seeding to raise water levels in the reservoir.
