Fresh water is not equally spread on earth and becomes scarce with climate warming, pollution, population and economic growth.
Water Aflamed provides you virtual water and water footprint concepts right on your iPhone in order to help you preserving it.
The 3 major tools are:
- a water footprint calculator taking into account Agriculture, Industry and Domestic usage.
- a water efficiency eco-label for food products for a more sustainable shopping
- a food comparator giving protein equivalence but with a smaller water and fat footprint
Water efficiency eco-label
Choose a food product and a country of origin and see its label from A (best) to H (worst).This measures the impact on local water resources.
Swipe to get advanced information:
- the water footprint of the product
- the ration between green (rain), blue (irrigation)and grey water (pollution by fertilizers)
- the amount of water available per capita in country of origin
The label is based on these 3 factors.
Water footprint Calculator
Enter the water product you eat/buy/use in Agriculture, Industry and at Home and the application will tell you your annual water footprint.World average is 1.2 millions of liters. What about you ?
Along with your water footprint, get also:
- the ratio between between Agriculture, Industry and Domestic usage
- detailled water footprint, listing all the products
- water product per product with short information page and nice logo
Proteins
Meat is obviously one of the most water requiring human activity. It is also responsible of large greenhouse gas emissions.
How to eat less meat while keeping a decent amount of proteins ?
Choose a food and a quantity. Corresponding water footprint is displayed in the blue drop and corresponding fat content appears in yellow.
Now check below other quantities of nutrients that bring exactly the same amount of proteins.
Compare water footprint and fat contents.
So could you replace meat sometimes ?
