11-2 Water Use and Management Page 276

A. Global Water Use 1. There are three major uses for water: residential use, agricultural use, and industrial use.

B. Residential Water Use 1. There are major differences throughout the world.

B. Residential Water Use 2. The average person in the United States uses about 300 L of water a day. But in India, the average person uses only 41 L of water everyday.

C. Water Treatment 1. Most water must first be made potable (suitable for drinking).

C. Water Treatment 2. Removes elements such as mercury, arsenic, and lead, which are poisonous to humans even in low concentrations.

C. Water Treatment 3. A pathogen is a virus, microorganism, or other substance that causes disease.

C. Water Treatment 4. Pathogens are found in water contaminated by sewage or animal feces, but can be removed with water treatment.

D. Industrial Water Use 1. Industry accounts for 19 percent of water used in the world.

D. Industrial Water Use 2. Water is used to manufacture goods, to dispose of wastes, and to generate power. 3. Most of the water that is used in industry is used to cool power plants.

E. Agricultural Water Use 1. Agriculture accounts for 67 percent of the water used in the world. Plants require a lot of water to grow, and as much as 80 percent of the water used in agriculture evaporates.

F. Dams and Reservoirs 1. A dam is a structure that is built across a river to control a river’s flow.

F. Dams and Reservoirs 2. A reservoir is an artificial body of water that usually forms behind a dam. Water from a reservoir can be used for flood control, drinking water, irrigation, recreation, and industry.

Water Conservation 1. People can conserve water by changing a few everyday habits and by using only the water that they need. Water-saving technology, such as low-flow toilets, can also help reduce household water use.
