Abstract

The Psychology of Sustainability (PS) studies the issues involving the relationship between water availability per capita and water consumption. From concepts such as: population density, water infrastructure and water provision raises three lifestyles concerning water storage, leak repairing and water consumption. The PS notes that the causal relationships between water issues and lifestyles are important if one considers Local Sustainable Development rather than regional and global. As water problems intensify, attitudinal processes of austerity prevail over the waste of water. In contrast, water situations in equilibrium with residential consumption facilitate wastefulness. The discussion alluding to water problems and lifestyles will allow to build a rate system for consumption and define the policies that will be required in a context of supply and distribution crisis expected in the coming years.
