Our journey toward a #WaterPositiveFuture requires transformational partnerships and collaboration. This week in Stockholm, during #WWW2024, Shannon Quinn, P&G Global Water Stewardship Leader, spoke alongside our partner, Bonneville Environmental Foundation (BEF), and Microsoft to share insights into our water restoration projects across the American Southwest. Water is one of the key pillars upon which our Ambition 2030 is built, and we’re focused on addressing water challenges within 18 water-stressed areas around the world where we operate — not only because there is a need, but also because we know it's where we can make the biggest difference. #ItsOurHome #WorldWaterWeek
Power of partnerships and collaboration: How BEF, Microsoft and P&G are working together to help create a water positive future. On Tuesday August 27th, at World Water Week in Stockholm, a special 20-minute Talk Show session brought together corporate water stewardship leaders from @Procter and Gamble, @Microsoft, and non-profit partner @Bonneville Environmental Foundation to talk about collaborations that can build a water positive community. BEF’s Sara Hoversten highlighted the importance of bringing corporations, NGOs, housing authorities, and municipalities together to build urban conservation solutions. A recent partnership aptly named the Toilet Leak Detection project, teamed up with corporate partners, the @Los Angeles Housing Authority, technology partner @Sensor Industries, and research partner @Pacific Institute, to advance a project to identify leaks in large scale housing complexes and offer real time notifications to property managers. These leak detection solutions will save millions of gallons of water a year. Hoversten points out that projects like these create scalable solutions that can be replicated in other cities. A special thank you to @Walton Family Foundation for bringing the panel together.
