    Water Footprint vs. Water Footprint ISO 14046-2014: Differences

    Water is an essential resource for life on earth, but its availability and quality are under pressure due to a number of factors, from climate change to population growth and industrial activity. To understand and address these challenges, two key tools have been developed: the water footprint and the water footprint. Although both are related to water use, they differ in their approach and application.

    Life Cycle Analysis (LCA)

    In an increasingly environmentally conscious world, companies and organisations are looking for ways to reduce their environmental impact.
