Freshwater is necessary to all life, and freshwater is running low for the population of earth. As people realize the amount of impact a drought can have, they have formed organization to preserve and help freshwater stay preserved. Organizations such as Greenpeace educated and inform the population of the major impact water has and how fragile the water cycle is. Other organization centralized in United States include, Clean Water Network and USGS Water Resources of the United States. People and families can manage their water use by creating a water footprint quiz and being to reduce water waste in their own lives everyday. Other ways the government saves water is using reclaimed water for plants or other uses instead of fresh water to waste.
