Surface Tension - Waterwise: Washing Futures

How might our washing habits evolve in the future to meet the challenges of sustainability? Nearly 40% of the water we use goes towards our personal washing (showering, bathing and washing our teeth). WaterWise invites us to step into the year 2050 and imagine more sustainable washing routines through the use of advanced technologies and water systems supported by alternative cultural norms and water regulations. Three future scenarios are presented, designed using an innovative 'visioning' research process involving key stakeholders in the water sector.
