Abstract
Education is a key driver to effective water conservation, water quality awareness and behavior impacts, all top priorities for Florida’s stressed water resources. Population growth (estimated at 25% by 2020 to 21.8 million) means Florida will need 26.4% more water—an additional 9.1 billion gallons of fresh/potable water every day. Methods to protect water resources must take a variety of approaches starting with raising awareness.
