The line chart shows global water consumption in agriculture, industrial use and domestic use from 1900 to 2000. The amount of agricultural water use was always the most, rising from about 500 km3 to around 3,000 km3 at the end of the period. Similarly, industrial and domestic water use also experienced an increasing trend. From a little water consumption, they grew slightly to approximately 200 km3 and 90 km3 respectively in 1950. From that onwards, there was a noticeable growth in industrial water use, with about 1,000 km3 consumed, while domestic water use still increased slowly to just below only 500 km3.
