Explanation:

Water consumption in the world is one of the major topics under debate today. According to the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) most of the water is used by agriculture, which accounts for 70% of consumption; followed by industry, which holds 22%; and by domestic and commercial use with 8%.
