In the United Kingdom the average person uses more than 50 litres of water a day flushing toilets (where average daily water usage is about 150 liters a day. The highest average water use in the world is in the US, at 600 liters day.) Almost two in three people lacking access to clean water survive on less than $2 a day, with one in three living on less than $1 a day, more than 660 million people without sanitation live on less than $2 and more than 385 million on less than $1.

In 2005, one out of three urban dwellers (approximately 1 billion people) was living in slum conditions.

In sub-Saharan Africa, over 80 percent of the population depends on traditional biomass for cooking, as do over half of the populations of India and China. ]]> 2019-05-21 02:33:25 UTC https://padlet.com/hmfren/28uyh6liylyy/wish/361975070
