The pie and bar charts illustrate water consumers and how residential water use was distributed among five householders in Australia in 2004.
Overall, it is clear that the most water was consumed domestically, and it was used in the bathroom and garden more than other sections that year.
Concerning the pie chart, residents used approximately 70% of the water. Industries and businesses followed in second and third place, with very little difference between them at about 11% and 10%, respectively. Australia’s government consumed only 6% of the water, and the rest belonged to others.
As for the Australian residents’ water usage, it was used in the bathroom, toilet, for washing clothes, in the kitchen, and in the garden. The proportion of water used in the garden hit its peak at 28%, while only 10% of the water was used in the kitchen. Moreover, this figure for washing clothes was 20% in comparison with 15% in the toilet. Residents used over a quarter of the total water for purposes in the bathroom.
