There's little on this planet for precious than water. That's why Emory University, in collaboration with Sustainable Water, is lessening its water footprint with the WaterHub, a water reclamation facility that recycles and treats sewer water to heat and cool Emory's buildings. The WaterHub is the first of its kind in America, and it will reduce Emory's water usage by 146 million gallons per year and will save the school tens of millions of dollars.
