"Save like a local" water tool allows tourists to give back

Cape Town and the Western Cape are currently demonstrating how to come back from a severe drought - with the joint response from government, business and the tourism industry emerging as best practise for promoting water-wise tourism in the face of climate change.

Encouraging visitors to “save like a local”. Wesgro, in partnership with Flow, launched a global first water-offset tool, My Water Foot Print, as part of a bid to boost #WaterWiseTourism in Cape Town and the Western Cape.

The tool allows visitors to the Cape to calculate their daily water usage, and then to offset this usage by donating money to water conservation projects.
