water footprint
water is essential in our daily lives. but sometimes the size of our water footprint is shocking. it shows the amount of water a person uses, directly or indirectly, every day.
all day we use water directly. this is our primary footprint. this includes the water we drink, the water we need for a shower or the water we use to wash the dishes. but what about the water that we use indirectly; the water used to produce, grow or make the things we buy? this is our secondary footprint, and sometimes it is much bigger than we think. after all, 70% of the world’s fresh water is used for agriculture so the things we eat can make a big difference. and, to make almost anything, from a computer to a t-shirt, you need water. here are some facts that may make you think about how much water we use in a day:
brushing your teeth uses about seven and a half litres of water. it takes approximately 1,286 litres of water to produce a loaf of bread. but it takes about 2,310 litres to produce a 150g steak! an automatic dishwasher uses approximately 40 litres of water. washing dishes by hand can use up to 75 litres. a typical individual in the united states uses 500 litres of water each day. but over 1 billion people in the world use less than 6 litres of water per day. the average toilet uses 8 litres of clean water each time you use it.
