Water Footprint

We all use water daily.  And, we often use water as if it is an unlimited resource.  While we have oceans full of water only approximately 1-3% of the world's water is fresh, drinkable water (depending on your source).  So, what is our own individual water impact?  Many of us have heard of a carbon footprint, but we also have a water footprint that is how much water our consumption uses.  National Geographic came up with this great Water Footprint Calculator that will give you a good picture of your water footprint.  So, dive in and give it a try!
