Hello,
?Over the years, I’ve been fortunate to have authored and published many articles about water conservation, water efficiency, and today on aridification, the gradual process in which a region becomes drier and hotter. Below are four that I believe are of special importance.? ?Please select one (or more) that interest you.? If you have any thoughts or questions, please feel free to contact me.?? Klaus Reichardt
Managers of industrial facilities want to conserve water and find ways to use it more efficiently if for no other reason than it is the right thing to do, right? Well, yes, it is the right thing to do, but there is another reason managers of industrial locations should consider ways to reduce water consumption, and that is to save money. This article is being written in Chicago where water and sewer rates have doubled since 2007 and have yet to plateau.

As most people know, California is now in its fourth year of drought and 2016, which could be the fifth year, is sending us mixed signals. January was very wet, but February was bone dry. However, what many people do not realize is that the state is managing this drought much better than those in the past, specifically the 1976 drought that had the state on its knees. What the state learned can and has benefited the entire country. (Date sensitive but still critical)
Better water management is a key factor in reducing U.S. water consumption that can be replicated in other parts of the world. Typically, when we consider water shortage issues around the world, the focus is on water scarcity. We often look at certain regions of the world—and at times, in our own country—when there is not enough water to meet the needs, or customary needs, of the community.

One of the family members began filling a glass of water, and instead of clean, clear water coming out of the tap, it was cloudy and brown.
