Water scarcity is impacting several countries across the globe today.
It is estimated that $114 billion in annual sustainable water management investments are needed over the next 15 years to ensure availability of this finite resource.
USISPF member companies created the CEWA initiative to work toward these goals and align with the work with the Government of India to establish an effective policy framework that will ensure a sustainable water future for India.
And industry needs to be a partner to the government on this.
CEWA will work towards preventing incidents that have a detrimental impact on the environment by promoting best practices within and around industrial corridors.
The formation of this CEWA initiative is an outcome of the CEO roundtable event in November 2017, hosted by the U.S. Embassy and Nalco Water, an Ecolab company to promote the importance of water for business continuity, the exchange of best practices and technologies for smart water management.
