Water

Water is one of the most precious resources the Earth has.  Approximately 75% of the Earth’s surface is covered in it, but our natural water resources are decreasing.  There are many things that we as individuals can do to reduce our water usage, and with 13,000 students and 3,000 staff at the University, our water usage becomes huge.  The University is committed to reducing our water usage, benefiting both the environment as well as reducing the ever-increasing costs associated with our use.  In this section you can read all about the steps the University is taking to do this, how you can help on campus and at home and many other interesting things about water!
