Purpose of the Methodology • Tracking key environmental issues across their product supply chains. • Provide Patagonia decision-makers with a condensed metric that indicates impact of product water use through a rigorous, repeatable, and transparent process. • Product water footprints are inﬂuenced by the production methods, production locations and water productivities of the supply chain.

(1) •Obtained from remote sensing data •Assumed as 1 meter depth for ease of calculation

(1) •Theoretical ratio of chlorophyll a to unit mass of alga •Ratio varies greatly based on season, location, composition •0.01 is scientiﬁcally acceptable average (Reynolds, 2006) (Montagnes et al,1994)
