How Much Water is Embedded in Everyday Life?
Following on from my posts relating to freshwater use in agriculture, I've come across a fun little interactive tool on the National Geographic website.
I recommend just having a little play, and I almost guarantee you'll be surprised by some of the figures! Half a kilo of beef requiring 6810 litres of freshwater to produce seems crazy!! It's this mass consumption of water that is a real growing concern. As you will discover from this informative tool, the meat that more of us around the world consume requires huge volumes of water...could you be a vegetarian to save the world?!
