Abstract | When there's less rainfall, communities often restrict water use to conserve water. But as the U.S. population expands into more arid, drought-stricken areas, the increasing demand for water can stress water districts even in years that see average water supplies. As such, education facilities, which use large amounts of water, are placed under great presser to limit water consumption. However, schools can take reasonable, cost-effective steps to cut water usage in restrooms, which typically are where schools use the most water. This article discusses how installation of water-conserving plumbing fixtures can allow schools and universities to reduce facilities costs and help the environment. (ERIC). |
