World Water Week August 21 - 27, 2011

The WBCSD Water Project is led by 29 companies representing 12 industrial sectors

To manage your water globally, you need to know your water risks locally

Water scarcity may mean that even the most efficient operation may seriously overburden local conditions

Companies may face their biggest water risks and opportunities from their own suppliers or consumers of their products

Consumers and investors increasingly expect companies to account for and report upon their water impact

So, what can you do

about it?

• How many of your sites are in water-scarce areas?

• Which sites are at greatest risk?

• How much of your total production is generated from your most at risk sites?

• How many of your suppliers are in water-scarce areas?

• How will that look into the future?

• How many of your employees live in countries that lack access to improved water and sanitation?

?

The Global Water Tool will help you answer these questions….and more
