 Smart Approved WaterMark, has joined the Global Water Footprint Network - a global network of private and public sector organisations, as well as academic institutions, which aims to promote the sustainable, fair and efficient use of the world’s fresh water resources.
CSIRO and Smart WaterMark are the only Australian organisations registered with the network. CEO of Smart WaterMark, Julian Gray believes this relationship will ensure we are informed about the most current research on embedded water, and water use around the world. “Australia is at the cutting edge of water conservation activity and research. It is important to be part of these global networks to help promote the sustainable use of water.” Says Mr Gray.
The Water Footprint Network seeks to advance the concept of ‘water footprinting’ as a means of understanding and addressing the negative impacts of the production and consumption of goods and services. |
