Additional information
The paper contributes to the implementation of the government’s Code for Sustainable Homes to reduce per capita water consumption by approximately half, and contributes to the government commitment to reduce greenhouse gasses emission by 80% by 2050. It does this via a novel methodology and decision support system for selection and evaluation of environmental impacts of optimal composite strategies for in-building water efficiency. The paper findings are in use by several internationally leading research centres (Rodney Stewart, r.stewart@griffith.edu.au) all addressing the very important global issue of water scarcity.
