A Paragraph to Ponder

From the Dallas Morning News yesterday, Editorial Page - Thirsting for Reform: Water rights dispute shows need for new policy:

"In 2012, the 8,000-employee Dow plant [Dow Chemical plant at Freeport, Texas] consumed 155 million gallons of river water daily [Brazos River], far exceeding the 143 million gallons used daily by 1.3 million Dallas residents.  From 2009 to 2012, Dow used more than 1 trillion gallons of Brazos water."
