Benjamin  Franklin noted the
future water crisis.

Quoting Mr. Franklin, he said,   

"When the well is dry,
[then] we know the worth of water."

HOW MUCH WATER IS AVAILABLE?

Numerous publications give us the following water facts:

75% of the world is water

97% of the that water are oceans of salt water

2% of the remaining supplies of water are frozen in the Polar Regions

Only 1% of the entire planet's water supply is available for use in everyday
living.

HOW MUCH WATER ARE WE USING?

From 1998 to 2000 the US consumption went from approximately 340 billion
gallons per day to approximately 408 billion gallons per day with Irrigation
being the foremost usage.

Irrigated acreage more than doubled between 1995 and 2000   and is the
lead water usage activity.

During the months of irrigation usage, irrigation accounts for approximately
70% of your water bill.

WHAT WILL THE FUTURE BRING?

Experts and media from around the world are telling us that we are running out of
water. There is an immediate need to conserve and better manage our drinking
water, as well as to initiate other water procurement methods.  

In the February 2008 edition of Texas Monthly magazine, in an article entitled "The
Last Drop", we're advised that Dallas / Fort Worth, Texas will run out of water by
the year 2035.
