Water Footprint

Did You Know?

The average water footprint per person in the United States is 1,802 gallons per day!

This includes direct water used for washing dishes and irrigating your lawn, but also indirect water used to grow the food you eat, clothes you wear, and more.

While this is certainly a lot of water, there are many things you can do to reduce your water footprint each day, such as:

⚡️ Using less energy at home

👕 Buying secondhand clothes

♻️ Recycling cans, plastic, glass, and more

🚰 Turning off the faucet when brushing your teeth or shaving

💧 Wash only full loads of clothes and dishes
