Climate activism has intensified in the past few years as the planet warms to dangerous levels, igniting more extreme heat, floods, storms and wildfires around the world.
From 2003-2005, the average
water use for golf course irrigation
in the U.S. was estimated to be
2,312,701 acrefeet per year. That
equates to approximately 2.08
billion gallons of water per day for
golf course irrigation in the U.S.
There’s plenty to be outraged about other than golf. Cities aren’t running out of space because of a golf course.
Maybe not space, but water.
