Thirsty? So is everyone else. We’re headed for a water shortage. Here’s how a few simple choices can reduce your daily water use by 1,213 gallons. A GOOD Transparency video.

A collaboration between GOOD and Fogelson-Lubliner.

GOOD and Whole Foods Market have teamed up to bring you a series of infographics and videos on what we eat: where it comes from, what’s in it, and what choices you can make to ensure you’re eating as well as possible. This is the first in a series of four videos.
