Drought Conditions Continue to Worsen
Drought conditions are plagueing many areas of the US today. The demand for water continues to rise as the supply is diminishing. It is important for us to take whatever steps we can to help conserve water. Just how bad is the problem in the US?
Fox News recently reported predictions from experts of widespread
water shortages
in the US.
In October of 2007, Georgia Gov. Sonny Perdue declared the northern third of the state to be in a state of emergency. The state has been under water restrictions since Spring. But with a very hot and dry summer and high water demand the problem continues to grow.
The National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) publishes updated information on
climate conditions
across the country on a monthly basis. They are predicting that these dry conditions will continue to "persist or intensify" in the Southeast and Southwest. NOAA also expects similar conditions to likely develop from New Mexico to Florida, affecting all of the Gulf Coast.
With the water crisis that looms, you can see why we must do everything we can to conserve water. The water used for washing our vehicles may seem insignificant. But multiply that by the many who wash their cars each day, and you can see the impact of waterless car washing on
saving water
