Water: Every Drop Counts [INFOGRAPHIC]
Getting to know the world’s most vital natural resource.
The thing about water is that, while it may pour from the heavens and flow through the rivers - it’s actually a finite resource.

Yet, as the world population grows, so does the demand for freshwater, meaning conversation is more important than ever. Going from the global state of water to daily, individual usage, this infographic lays out all the facts - and, of course, shares a few tips for making every drop count.
