model answer:
The graph shows how the amount of water usedworldwide changed between 1900 and 2000.
Throughout the century, the largest quantity ofwater was used for agricultural Purposes, and thisincreased dramatically from about 500 km³to around3,000 km³in the year 2000. Water used in the industrial and domestic sectors also increased,but consumption was minimal until mid-century. From 1950 onwards, industrial use grewsteadily to just over 1,000 km³, while domestic use rose more slowly to only 300 km³, both farbelow the levels of consumption by agriculture.
The table illustrates the differences in agriculture consumption in some areas of the world bycontrasting the amount of irrigated land in Brazil (26,500 km³) with that in the D.R.C. (100km²). This means that a huge amount of water is used in agriculture in Brazil, and this isreflected in the figures for water consumption per person: 359 m³compared with only 8 m³inthe Congo. With a population of 176 million, the figures for Brazil indicate how highagriculture water consumption can be in some countries.
