Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Enacting ordinances that require houses to have swimming pools and passing laws that lower efficiency standards of appliances that use water would increase fresh water consumption, whereas creating incentives to install high-efficiency faucets, spouts, and toilets and instituting water conservation practices in agriculture and recreation would help to reduce or better manage fresh water consumption.
