The carbon footprint of 1 gallon of water varies depending on the source and method of production. However, typical estimates suggest that producing and treating 1 gallon of tap water in the US produces about 0.24 pounds of CO2 equivalent emissions. This includes energy used in pumping, treating, and distributing water.
