1.) With dedicated planning and investment, Singapore today is able to leverage technologies for 70% of its water self-sufficiency through recycled water (40%) and desalinated water (30%). The remaining 30% are from local catchments and imported water, according to the Public Utilities Board.
2.) NEWater is used mainly for industrial and air-con cooling purposes at wafer fabrication plants, industrial estates and commercial buildings.
3.) Singapore buys raw water from Malaysia at 3 sen (0.0096 Singapore Dollar) per thousand gallons, and sells it back treated at 50 sen. Singapore can draw up to 250 million gallons per day.

1.I learnt that we use 430 million gallons a day.
2. NEWater and desalination will meet up to 85% of Singapore’s future water demand.
3.I learnt that checking your faucets and pipes for leak can help you save water as it could waste 50 or more gallons of water a day.

4. Our tap water quality is well within the Singapore Environmental Public Health and it is clean to drink it unlike other countries.

# data[].attributes.body
Water demand in Singapore is currently about 430 million gallons a day with homes consuming 45% and the non-domestic sector taking up the rest. By 2060, Singapore's total water demand could almost double, with the non-domestic sector accounting for about 70%.

- if we do not find new ways to increase our water supply, we could face a water shortage and not get enough water for our daily needs.
-we can:
a] take five min showers
b] use a cup for brushing teeth and washing fruits/vegetables/plates in a basin instead of using running water.
c] put the washing machine on full load.
d]if everyone in Singapore does the things listed above, we can reduce the amount of water consumed greatly

1.Where did the idea of NEWater come from?
2.In the first part of 'climate change brings new existential threats', how are we going to 'make water at will'?

Singapore buys water from Malaysia and we are dependent on them. This at times cause  tensions between the neighbours due to the cost of the water.

Singapore try to be more self-reliant by recycling our water, that is, Newater. That is the result of many years of researching and development before desalination and osmosis worked in our favour.

1.)The reason that we need to conserve water is because as the population in Singapore continues to grow, Singapore needs to ensure that the demand for water does not rise at an unsustainable state.

2.)Singapore is considered to be one of the most water-stressed countries in the world. It is heavily dependent on rainfall due to the lack of natural water resources, and limited land is available for water storage facilities.

3.) Managing water demand is as important as securing an adequate supply of . PUB has initiated a wide range of water conservation plans to encourage prudent water usage.

4.)  Although the Singapore government can play a role, effective water conservation will require the involvement of the community.

1.I know that there are 4 main types of water:
-Imported water
-NEWater
-Desalinated water
-water from local catchment areas
2.We had to rely on Malaysia for water in the past for half of Singapore's water demand.
3.I know that Singapore has worked hard to get us clean water everyday.

1.There are 4 types of water in Singapore:
reclaimed water
imported water
rain water
desalinated water
2.Before,most of our water came from Malaysia as we were still developing as a country.
3.now,Singapore's water is mostly from Malaysia and reclaimed water.
