The products you buy cost more than money—they cost water. Lots of it. Clean water scarcity affects over 2 billion people and by 2025 two-thirds of the world’s population will live in water stressed areas. Knowing the water cost of the products you use, wear, buy, sell and eat will help you make more sustainable, ethical purchasing decisions.
This KNOW THE WATER COST plug-in tells you how much clean water it takes to produce items frequently found on Amazon and Prime Now—including manufactured items, meat and produce. In addition, it delivers facts on freshwater scarcity.
How to use the KNOW THE WATER COST plug-in:
• Install it.
• Visit Amazon.com or Prime Now.
• Enter a product into the search bar.
• If it’s one of the thousands of products we’ve included, the water cost will appear in place of the items actual price.
At The Weather Channel, we believe that small changes can have a big impact on global clean water scarcity.

Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
