What outdoor activity uses the most water?

Almost 40% of total residential water consumption is from water used for landscape irrigation and swimming pools

Water lawns during the early morning hours or evening when temperatures and wind speed are the lowest. This reduces the losses from evaporation.

Water your lawn only when it needs it. If you step on the grass and it springs back up when you move, it doesn't need water. If it stays flat, it does need water.
