On the occasion of the 21st World Water Day next Wednesday, a study by the University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences (Boku) is trying: a person in Austria uses 130 liters of water every day. That can’t be a problem in one of the most water-rich countries on earth – one might think. But if you take the water consumption that goes into the products we consume, the water footprint for one person is 4700 liters – 36 times that.
