Explores water reuse for enhanced efficiency in zoos, suggesting resilience in water-scarce environments.
LIFE4ZOO: Exploring the potential for water reuse in zoos How can zoos address water scarcity while ensuring animal welfare? The LIFE4ZOO project provides a solution, as researchers in Liberec and Barcelona test ways to reuse water from animal enclosures using a blend of nature-based and advanced technologies. Water management is being rethought across many sectors, and zoos are no exception. LIFE4ZOO turns this shift into a practical solution that cuts potable water use, improves efficiency, and makes zoo operations more resilient. At a time when water is becoming an increasingly valuable resource, the project shows that practical alternatives already exist.
