According to the US EPA, global water consumption is doubling every 20 years. Unless water consumption is reduced, a growing number of people will be left without access to clean drinking water.

Chuck Gordon, CEO, Siemens Water Technologies said: “Developing this fun, easy-to-use water calculator allows individuals to become more aware of how much water they are using – and importantly allows individuals to post – on Facebook – personal, public commitments to ‘conserve water’. It also provides an attractive visual that quantifies the amount of water saved, either by individuals or collectively in groups.”
