Experiment:
Over the course of the following week I decided to conduct a
face-to-face survey with both ESF and SU students. The only question I asked
was, “how much water do you use in a day”? I thought that this would broaden
our horizons by collecting data from a different group of people besides the
#nifkin twitter group.
Results:
After gathering data, I decided to group the results by
different sections. As seen on the pie chart, I grouped each person’s answer in
five different sections, < 30 gallons, 30-50 gallons, 50-80 gallons, 80+
gallons and with the response “I don’t know”. A majority of the students that
responded to my question answered with “I don’t know”.
Conclusion:
The results of this experiment can be deemed inconclusive
since each of these responses was most likely an educated guess even though a
majority had no idea. This goes to show that most people really don’t keep
track of how much water they are truly using in a day. Fresh water is a finite
resource that can soon run out if we don’t manage the amount of water we use in
a day. How can we keep track of the amount of water we use daily? Should there
be a limit? How can we sustainably use water?
