| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the cost of water in the United States. States that what people are "really paying for is the cost of the water treatment plant, the energy required to operate it, the systems storage and transmission system, and the salary and benefits of the workers who treat and bring the water to [a] home or business. The water itself...is free." Suggests that having free water "must change for communities across the United States to head off an approaching crisis over the availability of fresh water." Explains that "part of the answer to this growing problem...is to use the water...more efficiently. This can be accomplished either through government action, such as watering bans and restrictions, or by market forces." |
