More Corporate Water Risk Assessments
Pacific Institute:
20% of companies mention water risk – only
a few of 139 companies address external
water landscape in evaluating risks
Lack of context in reporting
Supply chain issues are often overlooked

Do you know…
How many of your employees live in
countries that lack access to improved
water and sanitation?
How many of your sites are in extremely
water-scarce areas? Which sites are at
greatest risk? How that will change in the
future?
How many of your suppliers are in water
scarce areas now and will be in 2025?

Risk Management on Global Water Issues
Requires an understanding of a company’s
water needs in relation to local externalities: Water availability – current and projected
Water quality
Water “stress” – people, environment and agriculture
Access to safe drinking water sources
Access to sanitation
Population/industrial growth
Company’s needs = owned operations,
employees, and supply chain…….and
ultimately customers

The Dow Chemical Company
The WBCSD Global Water Tool has provided a unique and
valuable perspective on the water use and relative corporate risks
in our global operations. We have used the metrics and mapping
results to review corporate risks communicate with internal
stakeholders. The user-friendly outputs in terms of Global
Reporting Initiative metrics are especially useful and we plan to
use the outputs of this tool in further external communication to
stakeholders as well.
2626
PepsiCo International
The new WBCSD Global Water Tool is a significant step in
addressing world water issues. It is the first tool of its kind
available in the public domain, and will have marked impact in
helping companies, governments, and other interested
stakeholders proactively assess and manage their water resource
risks.
The WBCSD Global Water Tool is intuitive to use, so the user is
able to get up to speed almost immediately on the basic
functionality of the Tool. As the user's familiarity increases, so do
the evident power and impact of the Tool.
2727
Petro-Canada
The Tool provides a company with a singular and holistic view of
its operations relative to water scarcity. Petro-Canada intends to
introduce the Tool to our business units and encourage them to
include its use in project decision making. We are looking forward
to the future development of the Tool to provide greater information
and therefore increased value to our business.
2828
Alcan
Water for Alcan is a key component to business sustainability and
a top priority in delivering on our EHS FIRSTTM commitments. The
WBCSD Global Water Tool is a powerful and very user-friendly
application to assess our global and regional water footprint in
order to visualize, communicate and assist in high level decision
making to deliver value for internal and external stakeholders.
2929
DuPont
DuPont supported the development of the WBCSD Global Water
Tool as we saw it as an effective means of putting our science to
work to develop sustainable, global solutions. The collaboration
among companies from major industry sectors has been
remarkable and has resulted in a tool of widespread applicability
and value. In our pilot testing, we found that this tool aligns with
our company’s publicly stated water conservation goals by
enabling us to focus our resources more effectively on operations
in locations where water resources are, or will be, under stress.
The Global Water Tool is already helping DuPont towards
achieving our vision of creating sustainable solutions essential to a
better, safer, healthier life for people everywhere. We’re confident
that others will find this tool to be just as valuable in helping them
with their sustainability efforts.

Unilever
This tool should really help the new swimmers in the stream of
water business risk awareness to start to understand their own
issues; it is a really practical follow up to the Water Scenarios
which should have raised the issue of Water for Business.
3131
Shell
Water is a strategic issue for Shell in our operations and
communities around the world. Since we are active in over 130
countries and territories, we saw value in the development of a tool
that could provide portfolio perspective for identifying and
managing risk. We found the Global Water Tool easy-to-use and
the presentation of the output tables of great value for
communication on global water risk. We are also exploring how the
tool can be linked to our annual sustainability report.
3232
Borealis
The Global Water Tool provides a comprehensive and dynamic
picture of our operations' water footprint and is the basis for the
strategic management of water risks.
3333
ITT Corporation
The Global Water Tool is valuable for companies around the globe
that understand clean water resources are critical to business
success and must be managed effectively. The tool is not an end
to itself, but rather the beginning of a much deeper understanding
of the water situation in local business communities. We are
committed to using the tool at ITT to inform decision-making
across our company.

CH2M HILL
Water risks to business and society are significant now and
expected to increase due to the impacts of climate change. The
WBCSD Global Water Tool is an example of the way business
must innovate in the future to proactively identify and address risks
to protect our shareholders, employees, communities and the
environment.
