The Cost of Water: Tackling California’s Drought


California’s water crisis goes beyond scarcity. Transporting and distributing water, especially to Southern California, demands significant energy, contributing to both high utility costs and environmental impact. To shed light on these hidden costs, we have released a report, alongside 50L Home Coalition, on The Cost of Water, which examines the energy and carbon expenditures tied to California’s water system and explores alternative water sources that can reduce this burden.

With partners like Electrolux, IKEA, Kohler Co., and Procter & Gamble, a pilot program in Los Angeles will retrofit homes to demonstrate significant water and energy savings.
