water
, for industry
, agriculture
and domestic use
, in six regions of the world.
It is clear that
in South America
, Africa, central Asia
and southeast China, water
was mainly used in agricultural areas. However
, in North America
and Europe, industry
accounted for the most amount of water
use
, followed by agriculture
. Both regions used the least amount of water
for households.
In South America
, Africa, Central Asia
and South East Asia
, agriculture
took up the majority of water
use
. In central Asia
, even 88% of water
was used in this
section, followed by only 7% in domestic use
and 5% in industry
. A similar situation could be seen in Africa and South America
. While
in South East Asia
, the main purpose of water
use
was also
for agriculture
, at 81%, but the second largest usage was for industry
, at 12%, which differed from the other three regions.
Whereas
Europe and North America
used by far the most amount of water
for their industry
, both around half of the whole. They use
only 32% and 39% of their water
