In this context, Carbon and Water Footprints first analyses the origins of the carbon and water footprints. It makes a detailed exploration of the similarities and differences of aspects such as definition, methods of measurement, spatiotemporal dimensions, components, and entities for which the footprints can be calculated. Carbon and Water Footprints then discusses the two in terms of accounting and response strategies, investigating for example the setting of sustainable caps and targets for reduction, and the problematic rebound effect encountered with increasing efficiencies.
