Description

The UN says that water is one of Earth’s most-consumed resources. It is essential for sustaining life and global industry. Yet it is a precious resource and freshwater supply is becoming scarcer for many reasons, including climate change, higher global temperatures and population growth.

Sectors such as agriculture, mining and food and beverage are abundant consumers of water. But water security is essential for any business or sector. No water means no business, so all organisations have a part to play in ensuring consumption is as sustainable and resilient as possible. Businesses can take direct action now to improve their water usage practices and see real results straight away, thanks to technological improvements. However, there is still much more that can be done across resilience, reuse and sustainability.

The Financial Times, in partnership with Schneider Electric, is hosting this webinar for industry leaders in manufacturing, technology and production. Hear from industry leaders developing cutting-edge technologies to improve water sustainability, and learn how global companies, governments and regulators can work together to ensure future water supply.
