Abstract -Though earth is filled with 75% of water, only 2% of water is used by living beings. Moreover, water gets wasted unnecessarily due to the lack of awareness in utilizing water efficiently. Also the major challenge which the earth faces day by day is water scarcity.   Hence if steps were taken to efficiently utilize the water resources, it would be quite useful for the present and future generations survive wealthy. To make this possible, an automated system for consuming water had been developed so as to make the earth green. The system consists of an ARM Board along with Hall Effect Sensor, relay and GSM Module controls the flow of water, when the quantity of water utilized in a particular building exceeds the threshold.  The Hall Effect Sensor figures out the amount of water utilized by the building under concern. When the amount exceeds threshold, the sensor acknowledges the controller ARM which immediately on receiving the signal, triggers on the relay, which further closes the valve connected to the pipe line. Intimation is also passed on to the Water Control Board through the GSM Module. The core idea of this project is to develop a system which makes the water consumption effective which would be given in substance, which when implemented would make the future generation grow wealthy.
