Kuwaiti Fun Fact

...Despite living in a desert with few fresh water wells, on average Kuwaitis use twice as much water as Americans.

From the July 2005 issue of Together Magazine, published by the AWARE organization:

Water wastage is high on [Kuwait's] list of envrionmental issues, with the average use of water in each home at more than 100 gallons a day, compared to 50 gallons a day in the United States . . . Recently, a mechanical puppet show has been comissioned by the Kuwait Science Center to educate the county's youth on water conservation. [It's called] the "Splish Splash Puppet Show."
