How to measure and estimate your daily use of fresh water
Introduction:
Water is in increasing demand due to population growth and climate change, which makes it a significant environmental concern. The purpose of this report is to contribute to the broader context of sustainable water management by assessing my daily activities that consume water and defining possible sources of water waste.

The approach is to estimate my daily water consumption by recording the frequency and the volume of water used in activities such as washing hands, showering, and drinking. The results of this analysis will be used to calculate the average daily water usage, providing a basis for comparison between my daily water consumption and the average UK water usage. The report is structured to include an introduction, methods, results, discussion, and conclusion.
Methods:
To gauge my average daily water usage, a systematic approach was adopted over a four-day period. The method involved defining all activities consuming water, recording the frequencies of the activities, and estimating the volume of water consumed in each…
