Best Answer

The Netherlands are water misers compared with many countries. The Dutch use an average of 500 liters/day compared to the USA at 1682 L/d and Canada at 1494 L/d. Other countries are better than the Netherlands (Switzerland at 335 L/d and the UK at 163 L/d). The differences could be due to lifstyle (fewer carwashes, big well watered lawns, water efficient washers, toilets etc.) or the lack of heavy water intensive industry like refineries or pulp and paper.
