On the occasion of Earth Day, weāre focusing on a resource thatās as vital as it is precious: water.
You may have already calculated your carbon footprint, and now you can also calculate your water footprint too! Your water footprint is the total amount of water consumed to produce and distribute the goods and services needed for your daily life.
Here is a simple tool created by ADEME to calculate your āinvisibleā water consumption:
Please note: the English version is a translated adaptation, and may not be 100% accurate in every detail but itās still a fun and insightful way to explore your water footprint!
To thank you for taking part, weāre pleased to offer you 50 GuestPoints!
(Just make sure you enter the email address linked to your HomeExchange account. )
Once youāve taken part, weāre challenging you with a small collective task:
Share your results in the comments, as well as the simple actions or tips that you implement (or plan to adopt) to preserve water, whether at home or during your exchanges.
Every drop counts, and due to the size of our community, millions of liters could potentially be saved.
This initiative is open until April 30th 2025, and the GuestPoints will be credited to your account by May 6th at the latest.
