  5. Water initiatives at Coca Cola • Water Stewardship at Coca Cola: Protect, Reduce, Recycle & Replenish water used in the operations • Water Footprint: understand and manage water use across the supply chain Source: Accenture UNCG Studie 2010

  6. Water Footprint - components Grey water: volume of water is required to dilute pollutants to such an extent that the quality of the water remains at or above agreed water quality standards  Blue water: volume of surface and groundwater consumed as a result of the production of a good or service   Green water: volume of rainwater evaporated during the production process

  7. Water Stewardship and Water Footprinting Total WFP for a 0,5l PET regular Coke, produced in the Netherlands: ~35l

  8. Water Footprint of Sugar Source: Product Water Footprint Assessments, The Coca Cola Company & The Nature Conservancy 2010

  9. Sustainability assessments drive focus to impacts and action • 6 countries/ 10 regions • 50% of total European beet sugar use • Objective: • To assess water footprint impacts • To locate sustainability risks • To guide business action

  10. Assessing the impacts within a watershed Quelle: Product Water Footprint Assessments, The Coca Cola Company & The Nature Conservancy 2010

  11. Assessing blue water footprint sustainability Quantity issue? Share of beet?

  12. Assessing grey water footprint sustainability Quality issue? Share of beet? 15

  13. European topline results Blue WFP • 4 / 10 no quantity issues and low beet impacts • 2 / 10 not confirmed due to lack of data, but unlikely to have major quantity issue or impacts • 2 / 10 severe issues and/or severe share of beet growing Grey WFP: • Widespread phosphor issues, but no direct link to beet • Widespread nitrate issues, but role of beet might be overstated

  14. Business action • Focus action on ‘hotspot’ areas identified: • Engage suppliers • Understand local realities • Discuss practical water sustainability response plans • Define areas of collaboration • Leverage best practice: • Share best practice within supply chain • Leverage best practice across industry • Support supplier-owned initiatives

  15. Summing up… • A good method to show where to act if you take a holistic approach to water protection: Identifying hot spots! • Methodology requiring water quantity data on riverbasin level (might not be available) • Young science requiring more reality-checks (e.g. nitrate leaching) • Industry response on field-levelrequired

  16. Sustainable Development „Nothing is more powerful than an idea whose time has come“ Victor Hugo
