It's the number one contaminant of groundwater, drinking water, rain water.

Total water consumption in Denmark amounts to just under 1 billion cubic metres.

It is also used in the measurement of cloud cover, aerosols, vegetation, atmospheric water vapour and liquid water content.

The amount of water available for abstraction is about 1.8 billion cubic metres.

I told you to measure that water in a cup.

Moreover, livestock production consumes one third of the total water resources used in agriculture (which accounts for 71 of the world s water consumption), as well as more than 40 of the global output of wheat, rye, oats, and corn. And livestock production uses 30 of the earth s land surface that once was home to wildlife, thereby playing a critical role in biodiversity loss and species extinction.

The share of subsoil waters in the total consumption of water in Poland is 45 per cent and they are used by more than 25 million people, of whom 4 to 5 million obtain water from shallow wells adjacent to their homes which are prone to pollution (about 60 per cent of those examined contained water of a quality classified as either unsafe or bad).

I wipe it up with a sponge, and I put it under the running water, and I have a lot less energy and a lot more water.

Women are most often responsible for domestic and community water management in developing societies, being in charge of determining sources, quantity and hygienic quality.

If you put carpeting in your house, it's about a tenth of the embodied energy of the entire house, unless you use concrete or wood for a much lower embodied energy.

The goal is to combat a severe drought by reducing residential consumption by 20 . The trouble is that residential water use accounts for less than 15 of total consumption.

These include drainage, drinking water, electricity, roads and quality health services.

Owing to limited freshwater supplies, salt water is used extensively for non domestic purposes, including firefighting and sewerage.

The destruction of water and sanitation infrastructure had resulted in decreased average per capita availability of water, as well as contaminated drinking water.

Kuwait relies on the results of its monitoring and assessment enumeration study to estimate the ground level concentrations of airborne particulate matter to which its citizens were exposed during the period when the oil well fires were burning.

Water demand management policies could also be used for reducing the waste water volumes and required investment in sewerage.

Superhydrophobic is how we measure a drop of water on a surface.

Agriculture accounts for a major part of global freshwater use.2

Who has measured the waters in the hollow of his hand, and marked off the sky with his span, and calculated the dust of the earth in a measure, and weighed the mountains in scales, and the hills in a balance?

The amount of oil and dispersants that we are putting into it is tiny in relation to the total water volume.

Due to limited freshwater supplies, salt water is used extensively for non domestic purposes, including firefighting and sewerage.

Within the restrictions of land quality and water supply, emphasis is being placed on innovative technology, including the use of hydroponics and irrigation schemes, to increase production.

That agreement, in turn, will involve total reductions of 80 per cent from peak levels during the cold war.

Although serious water resource limitations had prevented mass availability to the region, Israel's efforts would be instrumental in increasing the water flow.

Potable water was tested for total beta activity.

Sufficient rainfall ensured that the water pumps on the east bank of the river were adequate to provide water to the village.

This number does not include large hydropower, which accounts for another 16 per cent of total generation capacity.

Another goal is to provide information to the public about the quality of drinking water.

This code no longer uses discrete mass and altitude bins for describing a population and its evolution with time but it uses sample objects (approximately 10 of the population).

Precipitation

(c) Emission intensity of GDP the permitted emission level under the QELRO applicable to each Annex A Party should be determined, all other things equal, in inverse relationship to its emission intensity of GDP.

Lack of proper pricing also encourages profligate use and wastage.

Sometimes nothing will do but your own sweat and muscle.

Waste management is covered in the action plan 1993 1997, in which targets are set to reduce the overall amount of waste, to reduce the amount of waste entering landfills to 21 per cent of the total amount of waste, to reduce waste incineration to 25 per cent and to recycle 54 per cent of total waste.
