Unveiling Company Progress on Water Stewardship

The global water crisis—the result of decades of mismanagement, population growth, and climate change—is getting worse, and so are the financial risks facing companies. It’s clear: corporate water management approaches must adapt to the changing state of water resources. The new Valuing Water Finance Initiative benchmark assesses where 72 companies from four water-intensive industries—food, beverage, apparel, and high-tech—are on this journey to protect their bottom lines and help ensure a water-sustainable future for all by 2030.
In this webinar, participants will:
– Review key takeaways from the benchmark demonstrating how the 72 focus companies are performing against six Corporate Expectations for Valuing Water
– Discuss how leading practices can be an opportunity for all companies to elevate their efforts to reduce water risk
– Explore the significance of the benchmark as a unique and comprehensive tool for both investors and companies working to raise their ambition to protect freshwater resources
