Happy World Water Day! ? You unlocked 50 cents.
Excellent work! You guessed correctly: It takes up to 7 gallons of water to flush a toilet … once. And we have more stats where that came from.
• An average 5 minute shower (just 5 minutes!) uses 15-25 gallons of water
• Running the dishwasher once takes 9-12 gallons...
• … and hand-washing your dishes is even more impactful, using up to *20.*
All the while, just 1% of the Earth’s water is drinkable, and 2 billion people lack reliable access.
These stats demonstrate the importance of our work across 49 countries to conserve these precious resources.
All around the world, we fight to protect the water every single one of us uses — perhaps even more than we realize. And it all relies on your partnership.
This World Water Day, make a gift for drinkable, fishable, swimmable waters. →
