How much water could you save?

water

Here’s a pretty cool illustration that shows how much water it takes to get through the average day.  Their implication is that everyone is in the left categories and we could benefit from everyone shifting to the right.  Of course the reality is that most of us are somewhere inbetween, and there are some aspects over which many of us have little control (like where our power is generated).

Still, I like the graphic (from GOOD magazine) and I like how it makes clear just how much water some items require (coke compared to water, beef compared to chicken (or better yet, the salad)).

With the water levels the way they are in California this could become more and more relevant as the years progress.
