It introduces key facts on rainfall distribution, per-person consumption and the wider water footprint, then explains how water stress occurs and the environmental impacts. It also outlines future water demand in south-east England, including supply planning through water resource plans and demand-management measures such as leakage reduction, plus engineering proposals for transferring and storing water.","GCSEGEOGRAPHY  \n# Pre-release resources booklet\n\nTo be issued to students on Monday 19 March 2018.  \nThis booklet contains three resources as follows:

\u003Cbr>0   | Water-the facts  \u003Cbr>Did you know that the UK has less  \u003Cbr>rainfall per person than our northern  \u003Cbr>European neighbours,and that  \u003Cbr>London is drier than Istanbul?  \u003Cbr>In the UK every person uses  \u003Cbr>approximately 150 litres of water a  \u003Cbr>day,a figure that has been growing  \u003Cbr>by 1%every year since 1930.If you  \u003Cbr>take into account the water that is  \u003Cbr>needed to produce the food and  \u003Cbr>products you consume in your  \u003Cbr>day-to-day life you actually consume  \u003Cbr>3400 litres per day.  \u003Cbr>This is quite alarming if you consider  \u003Cbr>that the UK has less available water  \u003Cbr>than most other European countries.  \u003Cbr>If you live in the south east of England  \u003Cbr>it is even more so,as this part of the  \u003Cbr>country is the most water stressed.  \u003Cbr>By making small changes and  \u003Cbr>choosing more water efficient  \u003Cbr>products you can save water without  \u003Cbr>sacrificing too much money,comfort,  \u003Cbr>or level of service.  \u003Cbr>(Waterwise Factsheet)   |\n| --- | --- |\n| Water stress in England  \u003Cbr>Key  \u003Cbr>What is water stress?  \u003Cbr>Level of water stress  \u003Cbr>Water stress is when the demand for water  \u003Cbr>Serious  \u003Cbr>exceeds the available amount during a particular  \u003Cbr>□Moderate  \u003Cbr>time period.  \u003Cbr>Low  \u003Cbr>What problems are caused by water stress?  \u003Cbr>Water stress can cause too much water to be  \u003Cbr>removed from underground sources of water and  \u003Cbr>rivers,damaging the environment.   |  |\n| Future demand for water in south-east England  \u003Cbr>All water companies have 25-year water resource plans.These show how companies plan to meet  \u003Cbr>demand in the future.Water companies plan their water supply using methods agreed by the  \u003Cbr>Environment Agency.Plans are designed to maintain water supply through the worst drought in the  \u003Cbr>last hundred years,with at least a month's water supply left at the end of any potential period of  \u003Cbr>drought.  \u003Cbr>It is expected that total water demand in south-east England will rise from about  \u003Cbr>4900 million litres/day in 2005 to 5600 million litres/day in 2030.  \u003Cbr>Water demand management is broken down into three components:  \u003Cbr>·leakage is expected to fall by 25%by 2030  \u003Cbr>·non-household demand is expected to increase by 200 million litres/day between 2005 and 2030  \u003Cbr>·household demand is expected to increase from 164 litres per person/day to 180 litres per  \u003Cbr>person/day between 2005 and 2030.   |  |\n\n3  \nFigure 1 continued  \n## Water in the United Kingdom\n\nWater suppliers
