There are two sources of water, Surface water, and Groundwater. In the USAmost of the groundwater is used in the Agriculture sector. Almost forty percent of the water used in irrigation is the groundwater. It is used to irrigate eggplant, squash and other crops. Water departments at the county level also withdraw a large amount of groundwater for businesses and industries. Mining facilities also use lots of groundwater. According to the 2015 statistics of the US government, 15,200 Million gallons of water was withdrawn every day from ground. California, Arkansas, Nebraska, Idaho, and Texas were the five states which had a 46 percent share of the total groundwater extracted. Saline groundwater is used in mining
<span>Worldwide, industry accounts for about 24 percent of all water use, but this is an average amount. Industrial water use can be as much as 70 percent in some highly industrialized European countries or as low as 5 percent in less industrialized countries, such as Bolivia. Most of industrial water is used as a cooling agent for power plants, but unlike agricultural water use, the majority of the water is non-consumptive. Industrial plants usually draw water out of a river or ocean, use it for cooling their equipment, and then return the water to its origins. If care is taken to avoid contamination, the water is not degraded or polluted, and it can be used again for other purpose</span>
