Water footprint
Renewable water per person
Calculate renewable freshwater per person for any resource volume and population, and see which scarcity band it falls in.
Result
Renewable water per person
2,151m³/person/yr
Falkenmark classification
No water stress
Per person per day
5,892litres/person/day
Caveat
A national average conceals seasonality and regional distribution entirely
Countries far above the stress threshold routinely have cities that run short.
Method
Per capita = total renewable resources (km³/yr) × 10⁹ ÷ population, giving cubic metres per person per year. Bands follow the conventional Falkenmark thresholds.
