As @cdp #disclosure platform is open, lets highlight how env disclosure is a business #mustdo. Last year +20% comps disclosed on #watersecurity (2,900) & +27% disclosed on #forests (680). If you haven't disclosed on either before, 2021 is the year to do so bit.ly/3tl6o7D

With accelerating #ClimateChange and water insecurity, it’s never been more important for companies to transition to water-secure business models.
On #WorldWaterDay, we’re celebrating the companies that #ValueWater and safeguard water resources.

The color of many U.S. rivers has changed since 1984 and 28% are now green, according to a study that largely attributed the change to human activity. A shift toward green is problematic because it indicates a high level of algae.
Is the sky still blue?

#ClimateChange and #water security are closely linked, but only 50% of companies disclosing their environmental data through CDP in 2019 were able to pinpoint how water security translated into business risk.

It is important to remember that solutions to the #UrbanWaterChallenge are not just about the tech but also about people and their experiences. @kpenakok shares the moments that inspired her to start @fieldfactors - the 2020 UWC Winner.

This is an example that water scarcity leads to conflict. "The dam’s takeover is a stark example of how far people are willing to go to defend livelihoods threatened by climate change" #waterisclimate #ClimateAction

"Science has been telling us for some time that the water scarcity & security crisis is bad & is set to get worse. That's just not a situation that can continue."

The world has no coordinated effort to protect water. @CDP says most apparel brands don't consider water pollution risks. @acousteau: “Don’t tell me you’re going to change your business practices by 2040, because that’s too late.” My latest @voguebusiness voguebusiness.com/sustainabi…

We cannot be silent in the climate community. People of colour are disproportionately affected by climate change and social inequalities. This is also not just the case in the US - but in many other countries where POC remain the most vulnerable. #blacklivesmatter
