I found this online. It shows how much water is used to make the things you use/eat and how to reduce your water consumption. I knew it took a lot of water for beef to reach your plate, but this puts it in great emphasis. I love how informative this graphic is. I love being a vegetarian too.
Oh my this is really sad, yet informative. I had never thought of this before, but it makes sense. I think during these times of crisis on mostly all levels it is important for us to know all the facts. We are so consumed with eating healthy organic things nowadays yet we don't take the time to look at all the factors that surround our food. To see that it takes 1500 gallons just for 1 LBS OF BEEF?! That's more water than many of the things COMBINED on that chart, and some people eat beef almost every day! I am sticking to Chicken! lol
