Benefits… …to your wallet On average, U.S. households consume about 127,500 gallons of water a year. Water is a bargain. The average cost is only about a sixth of a cent per gallon, and the average household’s total bill comes to about $200 a year. Of course many people pay more than this, depending on their use and higher-than-average rates in some areas. Many people can cut their use–and their costs–in half without even investing in new equipment. If you go all out, and invest a bit, you can save even more. Studies by the American Waterworks Association (AWWA) have found that in some cases water consumption can be reduced by a whopping 75%. …to the Earth The less water we use, the more remains for the nature’s creatures to enjoy. Also, the less water we use, the less energy is required to pump and process it. That means less mining and drilling for coal, oil, and natural gas, which damages the environment. Lower energy use also lowers the emission of global-warming gases such as carbon dioxide and other pollutants.
