As 4-H National Youth Science Day draws near, here are some water conservation facts to ponder:
On average, an American uses 9 gallons of water per minute when they shower.
A family of 8 uses 42,000 gallons of water to grow and prepare the food for a typical Thanksgiving dinner. This is enough to fill a 30 by 50 foot swi...mming pool!
And combined the U.S. uses 700,000,00,000 (700 billion) gallons of water each day.
