State Tax Commission Reverses Self Land and water are scarce resources. We will not increase the supply of land, nor can we substantially increase the hmount of available water. Yet the growth of population, the increasing of time available for leisure and the high degree of mobility of the American people create new and pressing demands. of our Today almost people face a water shortage, or have poor water, or both. The nations water supply over the years has held up well, but demands have grown tremendously. We now use, in the United States, 300 billion gallons of water a day. By 1980 we will need 600 billion gallons a day, more than twice in a 20 year period, if the present trend of the nations continues. Consider the land. Every . day we see more acres of land consumed by housing developments, shopping centers, super highways and airports. The nation consumes one million acres of land a year for urbanization. We also are losing the equivalent of an additional 400.000 acres yearly to erosion. Much of the loss is the very best agricultural land. Consider the population trend. Today, about 183 million people live in the United States.
