The GRACE Water Program began in 2007 with the creation of our H2O Conserve Water Footprint Calculator. Since then, the program has grown into a significant resource of tools, tips and information that help people make water conservation part of their everyday lives. We also focus on how water is used in energy production, agriculture and consumer products, and the ways we can improve the management of our water resources and water systems.
