Water footprint

Water footprint is like a report card for how much water you use. It is a way of measuring how much water you use for different things like growing food, drinking, washing, and other activities. The amount of water you use is measured in gallons and is compared to the amount of water that the average person uses so you can see how much you are using compared to others. It is important to know how much water you use so you can make sure you are using water responsibly and not wasting it.
