An infographic titled “Draining Resources? The Water Impact of Your Plate.” It compares the water usage of six foods, measured in gallons, along with a visual water footprint represented by water droplet icons. The chart includes: Beef: 1,847 gallons, with 4 water droplets Chicken: 815 gallons, with 3 water droplets Eggs: 573 gallons, with 2 water droplets Cheese: 896 gallons, with 3 water droplets Potatoes: 30 gallons, with 1 water droplet Rice: 403 gallons, with 2 water droplets The background includes splashes of water and the source is noted as treehugger.com.
Here’s some food for thought... Some foods require thousands of gallons of water to produce—others, just a fraction.
