52 Ways to ♥ H2O
BACKGROUND
Water is used in more ways besides drinking, cleaning and farming. It is directly connected to making electricity, power and cooling systems. Hydroelectric power plants account for 15% of California electricity production. Other power plants that still use fossil fuels to create energy need massive amounts of water to cool them down. With so many essential needs for water, it’s important that individuals do their part to conserve what they can.
