How much water do you buy?

Honestly I do not buy a lot. But this afternoon was absolutely parched and bought two bottles. And then again since yesterdays blip was thinking about Live Below the Line which starts in a month. And thought about the 1 billion people that do not have access to safe drinking water around the world.

Clearly it is not just about buying bottled water, but thinking about how much water we put into agricultural uses and much more. Apparently it takes 200 litres of water just to produce a morning coffee.

As a world and as global citizens we need to put more time and effort into sustainable water and all resources. Me included, I should have just come home and had some tap water, instead of buying water.
