It’s about amount needed for 40000 inhabitants for whole year. It’s impressive enough for me.
Assuming Google is accurate and the average American is similar to the average Canadian.
> The average American uses over 100 gallons of water per day
100 gallons/day * 365 days * 3.78 liters/gallon = 137,930 liters
Isn't that just 8 or 9 people's drinking water?
If you disagree with that, work backwards from your answer.
950,000 liters saved divided by 40,000 = 23.75 liters per year? That seems too low.
950,000 divided by 40000 = 23.75 liters
I feel like that is an absurdly low amount for a person to drink per year.
Also, I don't think the 100 gallon number includes industrial use like "golf courses".
> The average American family uses more than 300 gallons of water per day at home. Roughly 70 percent of this use occurs indoors. In addition, there are other miscellaneous uses of water in the house which may be very significant, depending on the degree of water conservation by the household.
