Published by Water Witness, Who Pays the Water Bill? explores the hidden water footprint of the UK’s food supply and how consumption in the UK is connected to water scarcity, environmental damage and unequal access to water in producing countries. Drawing on evidence and case studies from Morocco, Chile and Kenya, the report highlights the implications of unsustainable water use for both communities and UK food security. It sets out practical recommendations for supermarkets, food brands, governments and financial institutions to help build fairer, more resilient food supply chains and ensure that the true costs of water use are better understood and addressed.
