More with Less: Water Conservation or Water Rationing - A Program Evaluation before Voluntary Conservation Becomes Mandatory Rationing
少花钱多办事:节约用水还是定量用水——在自愿节约变成强制性定量用水之前的项目评估
This powerpoint presentation begins by providing the study objective: to
present ideas, concepts, and policies
that one municipal owner has
undertaken in the face of drought to
achieve a 10% reduction in water
consumption. The current situation of water resources in California is presented, along with water limitation impacts, and a brief overview of the City of Glendale and California's water sources. Glendale's Conservation Plan is outlined, and presentation conclusions indicate the following: water conservation is a legitimate and
viable option;
it is a shared responsibility by all
(government, business, residential); it
can produce immediate, tangible results; it is
critical to raise the awareness to get the
buy-in of consumers; and, it is a
concept of conservation vs. water use
efficiency. Conservation is short-term,
water use efficiency is a behavioral
change and long term. Includes figures.
