With all the bottled water we swig and showers we take, you'd think individuals consume the most water. Actually agriculture accounts for 71%, and industry 16%, of all water use globally. A pair of blue jeans requires 2,906 gallons, most of it from growing cotton. A car requires 104,000 gallons, most of it from the rubber. It takes 71 gallons of H2O to produce a tall cup of coffee. Starbucks plans to cut its in-store water usage by 25% by 2015 with, for example, espresso machines that dispense less water.
