Track Your Water Footprint
The water footprint concept emphasizes the interconnectedness of water resources and human activities, highlighting the potential impacts of water use on local and global water scarcity, as well as its implications for sustainable development and environmental conservation. By calculating and analyzing the water footprint of products and services, it becomes possible to make more informed decisions about resource use and to work towards reducing water waste and improving water use efficiency.
There are three main components of a water footprint:
1.Blue Water Footprint: This refers to the volume of freshwater extracted from surface water bodies (rivers, lakes) and groundwater resources to meet the water demand for a particular product or process.
3.Grey Water Footprint: This component takes into consideration the volume of water required to dilute pollutants and maintain water quality at acceptable levels. It's especially relevant in processes that release pollutants into water bodies.
2.Green Water Footprint: This component accounts for the amount of rainwater used for agricultural purposes. It's the water that's stored in the soil and used by plants during their growth.
