Aqueous Solutions

August 1, 2002

This chapter from the book “Natural Capitalism: Creating the Next Industrial Revolution” (View more of the book online.) surveys the growing worldwide scarcity of water and the opportunities for saving it through improved practices in agriculture, landscaping, buildings, industry, rainwater and graywater recovery, and biological treatment. Don’t expect a lot of how-to details in this document; here you’ll find background data on water usage by particular industries and equipment plus some general practices for water efficiency and recovery.
