Florida Water Issues 
I really liked reading through your blog! The pictures and diagrams helped explain the facts in a clear-cut manner! I was interested in the fact that for the first time public water use has increased above agricultural water use. Although I am not surprised with the especially high and growing population, I am surprised with how fast it dramatically it changed. In the diagram provided, in 2019 agricultural water use was at 51% and public water use was at 15% of the total fresh surface water use. Today, agricultural water use is at 37% and public water use is at 39%.

I loved the visual diagrams in this blog! It made it really easy to follow and aesthetically pleasing to the eye. I have always been curious about water use in Florida due to it being a large tourist destination. Over all I think you did a very well done job and I can’t wait to see the next one!

Wow, it’s wild to see other states water use for agriculture vs ours here in CO. With Florida being so humid I’m sure there is much more efficient water us from less evaporation alone. This is definitely the most comprehensive post I have seen, good job x1000!

All of the diagrams are interesting visually and conceptually. It is cool that a lot of the rivers in Florida have high oxygenation rates. Its also interesting how much water comes from groundwater when I feel like many other states use a lot of surface water. It is sad that there have been so many sewage spills. It’s a huge trend that water infrastructure needs to be updates in almost every state.

really well organized and reader-friendly. the information was very clear and straight to the point. I thought that the daily water usage per capita was going to be much higher due to pools and recreation.
