Climate Risk
Water and climate are inextricably linked. From the 1970s to the 2010s, the world has seen an eightfold increase in economic losses from climate-related disasters including drought, stormwater flooding, algae blooms, and winter freezes. The increasing financial and societal impacts, stretching from Cape Town to California, pose significant risks to municipal and corporate entities, globally.
Adapting to this new ‘normal’ requires significant changes for cities and municipalities. Stakeholders are targeting their carbon footprints to minimize the water sector’s footprint—2% to 3% of global emissions—to adopting mitigation strategies like water reuse, energy microgrids, and digital tech. In this context, climate change is driving unprecedented global opportunities for a range of technology & service providers and business models.

Cities are rolling out climate action plans
Cities are rolling out their own climate action plans. Water conservation programs range from rebate programs to improvements to residential or commercial water-efficiencies, fixing leaks, and installing smart water meters. By using water more efficiently, less water needs to be pumped, treated, and distributed. This reduces energy requirements and water-related emissions, helping with water security and carbon emission reductions. >>Learn More
