The concept of water footprints – or "virtual water" – will 
  tell consumers the amount of precious H2O that has been used in the 
  manufacture of products they buy. As with carbon footprints, a "virtual 
  water" figure will indicate the extent to which a particular product 
  has cost the earth. And, as with carbon footprints, the message is clear: 
  less is better.
