1.28gal for toilet flushing the most efficient toilets. 1.6gal for normal and it can be worse for older ones.

I was on a hike that recommended 1 gallon to complete it for 5 miles round trip.

I’m sure there is a method to the madness of 8 gallons per person that isn’t easy to see. There is a lot of rounding up with the military also.

1.5 a day for washing is hilariously wasteful. Use some wet wipes for crying out loud!

It works about as well as it always did, which was not very well.
