water usage

Water usage refers to the amount of water we consume for various activities like drinking, cooking, cleaning, agriculture, and industrial processes. It includes direct use, such as filling a glass or watering crops, and indirect use, like producing electricity or manufacturing goods. Efficient water management involves understanding these uses to conserve resources, prevent shortages, and protect the environment. Since water is a finite resource vital to all life, managing how much we use and waste is essential for sustainability and ensuring availability for future generations.
