Coca-Cola on Track to Reach Water Neutral Milestone by Year End
Wednesday, August 26th, 2015
In 2007, the Coca-Cola Co. pledged to return 100 percent of the water it uses by 2020. The soft drink company is announcing on Tuesday at the World Water Week in Stockholm that it expects to meet that ambitious goal by the end of the year.
Its combined efforts have put Coca-Cola on track to be the first global food and beverage company to replenish all the water it uses back to communities and nature. Based on Coca-Cola system’s global water replenishment projects to date, the system is balancing the equivalent of an estimated 94 percent of the water it used in its finished beverages based on 2014 sales volume.
