OUR WATER FOOTPRINT

-The most important thing in our water footprint is the food but domestic works are near.
We spend more water in meat.

Green water footprint

Volume of rainwater consumed during the production process. This is particularly relevant for agricultural and forestry products (products based on crops or wood), where it refers to the total rainwater evapotranspiration (from fields and plantations) plus the water incorporated into the harvested crop or wood.

Grey water footprint

The grey water footprint of a product is an indicator of freshwater pollution that can be associated with the production of a product over its full supply chain. It is defined as the volume of freshwater that is required to assimilate the load of pollutants based on natural background concentrations and existing ambient water quality standards. It is calculated as the volume of water that is required to dilute pollutants to such an extent that the quality of the water remains above agreed water quality standards.

Blue water footprint

Volume of surface and groundwater consumed as a result of the production of a good or service. Consumption refers to the volume of freshwater used and then evaporated or incorporated into a product. It also includes water abstracted from surface or groundwater in a catchment and returned to another catchment or the sea. It is the amount of water abstracted from groundwater or surface water that does not return to the catchment from which it was withdrawn.

A NEW ABOUT WATER AND SCIENCE

They create a quantum liquid millions of times more diluted than water. Can a liquid be ultradiluted? Is it possible to imagine that a liquid contained in a soup spoon could occupy the volume of an Olympic pool? Although under normal conditions this is undoubtedly impossible, at very low temperatures the matter behaves in an unusual and surprising way. Researchers from the Institute of Photonic Sciences (ICFO) led by Leticia Tarruell (professor Cellex Nest), have created a liquid one hundred million times more diluted than water and a million times less dense than the air.

THE INFINITE SEA.

THE INFINITE SEA - By Alex Dzigurski. On this picture we can see a sea that is not exacly calmed, it has waves crashing with some rocks on the shore, we also can see a beautiful sunset that doesn't let us see the horizon. We think water is very important in our lifes because we need it for everything: -Hydrate ourselves. -Clean us. -It is the habitat of so many animals. ... Some countries don't have water access and it should change.

Introduction

Hi, ladies and gentlemen we are the best cientific team in the world, the symbol delta ( δ) is our emblem. We have studied in very especial school, called, María Inmaculada Teatinas. Our teacher was Albert Einstein. We have studied a chemistry gradued. The team is made by Isabella, Shirley, Laura, Maria Jose, Fabiana, Marcos.
