For this week’s bog topic, I thought it’d be interesting to reach out to my friends and see how many gallons of water that they believe that they waste a day. Water waste is a huge issue when it comes to sustainability across the globe. Water can be wasted in many different ways and I feel that is often over looked. For example, keeping the water running when you brush your teeth, taking too long of showers, pouring out drinking water, etc. After reaching out to 10 of my friends, I put the data into a bar graph, which is pasted below;
The range of answers is quite obvious as one of my friend’s stated that she doesn’t waste any water, meanwhile, another one of my friend’s claimed that she wastes 20 gallons of water a day. By asking my friends this question, it was intended to make them think of all of the ways that they waste water and in return think of the ways that they can reduce water waste. Making these small changes can have a big impact on our globe.
I like how you included all kinds of water waste because I feel like we do not even notice all of the water we use in a day, especially through daily activities like brushing our teeth and showering.
Join the wasted water club bro! I did the same thing but a little different from yours. Definitely too much water is wasted.
I think water waste is always something that goes unnoticed. Especially by pointing out areas that are seldom thought about, you are able to get people to really think about the water they waste.
