Dear Colleague,
Water is the big sustainability issuetoday. It’s the oil of the 21st century. Andit’s rapidly becoming a valuablecommodity.
Water sustainability is rising ever higheron the sustainable business agenda, thatmuch is clear.
Scarcity is no longer exclusively felt bydeveloping nations but an issue everyone,especially big business, is having to tackleright now.
The amount of water on the planet isfinite. The problem is, it’s in the wrongplace at the wrong time for most peopleand the population is growing at such arate that water supply per capita isdecreasing dramatically.
Population growth is not the only issueeither; more people are plumbing into thewater system. With rapidly developingeconomies, domestic and industrial waterrequirements are soaring quicker than everbefore.
A third of the world’s populationcurrently lives in water-stressed regions, by2025, this is expected to rise to two-thirds.The big problem facing businesses is thatthey will always be last in the peckingorder when it comes to natural resources.
Domestic communities need their share,local business need theirs, and theenvironment will always take a big cut, asboth PepsiCo and Coca Cola found out inIndia. Rio Tinto learned this lesson inAustralia, when they faced a 50 per centcut in their 2002-03 water allocation.
Another factor to consider is investment:The $415bn Norwegian GovernmentPension Fund, which holds around 1% ofEuropean equities, is evaluating water riskat the 1,100 companies in which it invests.Even if you are not operating in a waterstressed region now, it’s obvious yourcompany needs to satisfy investors that youare managing water responsibly to ensureyou can secure funding for growth.
If only water shortage was as easy tosolve as it is to understand, unfortunatelyits not and that is why you need to come toThe Water and Business Conference 2010.
This event, theWater and BusinessConference 2010 on December 8th and 9th
in London, will equip you with the tools to
mitigate your water risks. You will hearfrom the world’s top business experts andgain from their practical experience. Theywill tell you directly how to manage yourwater more sustainably and how you canlearn from their mistakes.
To ensure you get the answers andcontent that you need this conference willbe focused around an interactive platform:you will be able to ask the questions andhave the conversations you want.
This conference will have the bestspeakers and the highest standard ofdelegates; you will hear from sustainabilitywater veterans such as PepsiCo andUnilever together with insightful casestudies from companies such as ReckittBenckiser and Diageo. This event will be afantastic opportunity to network with highlevel CSR and sustainability professionalsfrom a plethora of industries; we willfacilitate introductions and make sure youhave access to the people and informationyou require.
Adding extra value to your experience;you will reap the benefits of NGOs such astheWWF who are attending to stimulatecollaboration and give the broaderperspective of the global water crisis.
