The 'Save Water' initiative in the Algarve has made significant strides in reducing water consumption within the tourism sector. Data collected from March 2024 to March 2025 shows a 13% reduction in absolute water consumption and a 10% decrease in specific consumption (per overnight stay) compared to 2023 figures. This marks a clear positive impact of the program's implementation among participating tourism establishments.
Key achievements include:
- Substantial savings in water usage, contributing to environmental sustainability.
- Increased awareness among tourism operators and guests about the importance of water conservation.
The initiative not only benefits the environment but also enhances the Algarve's reputation as a leading sustainable tourism destination. With these results, the 'Save Water' program sets a benchmark for other regions to follow in the global effort to combat water scarcity.
