New water quality guidance launched as data shows gaps in corporate water stewardship
“Investors are recognising that water is the most significant environmental risk for many sectors."
The World Resources Institute (WRI) has launched new guidance to help companies measure their impact on water quality as well as quantity – just as CDP data reveals significant gaps in corporate water stewardship strategies.
WRI’s Water Quality Benefit Accounting guidebook builds on its existing Volumetric Water Benefit Accounting guidance (which was also updated this month), to provide companies with a clearly defined six-step approach for identifying water stewardship activities and quantifying, tracking and communicating their volumetric or water quality benefits.
