The Water Footprint Network has published its Global Water Footprint assesment manual.

This manual:

  • Provides a comprehensive set of methods available for undertaking a water footprint assessment
  • Shows how water footprints can be calculated for individual processes and products, as well as for consumers, nations and businesses
  • Contains detailed worked examples of how to calculate green, blue and grey water footprints
  • Describes how to assess the sustainability of the aggregated water footprint within a river basin or the water footprint of a specific product
  • Includes an extensive library of possible measures that can contribute to water footprint reduction
  • The manual was developed through a joint effort of the Water Footprint Network, its 139 partners and scientists of the University of Twente in the Netherlands.
