More people have cellphones than toilets

Access for all The poorest must be able to have access to water, but enough money must be generated to cover costs of treating and distributing the water You have the right to water that is affordable, economical and sustainable

Water Conservation You are not allowed to water your garden between 10 am and 4 pm

Water footprint The total volume of fresh water that is used, either directly (actual) or indirectly (virtual) to produce a product.

Cup of coffee (250 ml) 130 litres

Slab of chocolate (100g) litres

Cotton t-shirt (250g) litres

Pair of jeans litres

Electricity 1,35 litres / kWh

Water in our homes Saving water in the home: Shower rather than bath Rainwater harvesting or grey water use Install aerators Borehole and well points Read your water meter

Bottled water cost

Bottled water resources 1 litre = 26 litres

Bottled water waste

450 years
