Water As Top Global Risk…8 years in a row…

From bad to worse…

Reporting matters 2018

Most companies consider water as material

Many are still missing targets, strategy and context based water analysis

Corporate sustainability reports usually disclose water management data at a group level, which can limit the extent to which companies discuss regional contexts and local water-specific conditions

Corporate water targets and reporting

More companies setting targets…withdrawals going up

Food System Transformation…

Improved production practices could reduce water use by about 30%

Halving food loss and waste could reduce water use by 13%

Dietary changes, trade-offs, water use could increase by 1–9%

Increasing Population….

”…we suggest that the agriculture sector should be allowed a larger future allocation of the overall [freshwater] planetary boundary.”

Business Decision Making

Increasing attention and recognition by government, civil society and business

Business community is responding

Proactive decision making (e.g. CAPEX)

“Valuing water means recognizing and considering all the diverse benefits and risks provided by water,and encompassing its economic, social, and ecological dimensions as well as its diverse cultural andreligious meanings.”

Why value water

Recognize and Embrace Water’s Multiple Values

Principle 1. Identify and take into account the multiple and diverse values of water to different groups and interests in all decisions affecting water.

Reconcile Values and Build Trust

Principle 2. Conduct all processes to reconcile values in ways that are equitable, transparent, and inclusive.

Protect the Sources

Principle 3. Value, manage, and protect all sources of water, including watersheds, rivers, aquifers, associated ecosystems, and used water flows for current and future generations.

Educate to Empower

Principle 4. Promote education and public awareness about the intrinsic value of water and its essential role in all aspects of life.

Invest and Innovate

Principle 5. Ensure adequate investment in institutions, infrastructure, information, and innovation to realize the many different benefits derived from water and reduce risks.

Principles for valuing water

Business and societal value

Business case for valuing water

Internalising externalities – an internal price for water?

From circular water management to water in the circular economy

The business case for water in the circular economy

Source: Less is more: circular economy solutions to water shortages (ING, 2017)

• Population growth, urbanisation and economic development continue to strain water resources

• Interdependencies between efficient water management and food and energy system transformation

• Need to align global targets and strategy to local action

• Transition of water stewardship from risk-assessment to value protection / creation

• Time for internalising water externalities?

• Business opportunity around circular water management is significant
