Description
Water Footprints: Achieving Sustainable Development Goals serves as a comprehensive resource for professors, students, researchers, water resources planners, and managers working on natural science and engineering, addressing critical issues related to water footprints and their impact on environmental sustainability goals, especially the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Edited by global experts in the field, this book delves into the intricacies of water usage, offering a detailed exploration of its environmental impacts. By incorporating unique case studies and practical applications in every chapter, this book adopts a holistic approach to water use, integrating perspectives from environmental science, agriculture, and engineering. This interdisciplinary approach aims to present sustainable solutions to the growing challenge of ecological constraints while contributing to the achievement of the UN SDGs. Moreover, it addresses current management and policy concerns, highlighting the need for updated governance measures, particularly in light of international frameworks like the UNFCCC Paris Agreement.
