water
Utahns envision having clean, affordable water to support thriving communities and businesses, robust local agriculture, a healthy environment, and recreation. Even as the population grows, they see having enough water to support not only themselves but future generations. They envision using less water in their homes, businesses, and yards, so there is sufficient water for other uses like food production and habitat, as well as for new homes and businesses.
Utahns want to balance water demands so that future generations (their own children and grandchildren) have sufficient water for their families, the economy, food production, wildlife, and recreation.Utahns are very willing to take significant steps to reduce how much water they use, even at some personal expense, including changing their landscaping and irrigation systems, having smaller yards, and having less grass in yards, public parks, and other open spaces. They are also willing to fund the development of local and large-scale water projects after making significant conservation efforts.
