Select from Table $1\mathrm{.}10$ one industry that is of interest to you, then visit a library and determine the annual number of units of production for this industry in the United States or the country where you live. Determine the total annual water use and consumptive use for this industry. Convert this volume into cubic feet and then acre$-$feet. Suggest how the needed consumed amounts of water might be reduced. $($An acre is $43,560$ ft$2.$ Acre$-$feet are often used to express large volumes of water in the environment. For example, $5$ acre$-$ft can be visualized as a depth of $5$ ft of water covering an area of $1$ acre. The volume contained in $5$ acre$-$ft would be $5$ times $43,560$ ft$2$ or $217,800$ ft$3.)$ If you live outside the United States, develop a solution in cubic meters.TABLE $1\mathrm{.}10$
