General Information

Who uses the most water?
On a global average, most freshwater withdrawals (69 percent) are used for agriculture, while industry accounts for 23 percent and municipal use (drinking water, bathing and cleaning, and watering plants and grass) just 8 percent.
How much water does a person use every day? The average person in the U.S. uses 80 to 100 gallons
of water each day. During medieval times, a person
used only 5 gallons per day.
Should I be concerned about what I'm pouring down
my drain?
If your home is served by a sewage system, your drain is an entrance to your wastewater disposal system and eventually to a drinking water source. Consider purchasing environmentally friendly home products whenever possible, and never pour hazardous materials (e.g., car engine oil) down the drain. Check with your health department for more information on proper disposal methods.
How long does it take a water supplier to produce
one glass of water?
It can take up to 45 minutes to produce a single glass of drinking water.
