On Monday, Shares of The Coca-Cola Co (NYSE:KO), lost - 0.33% to $39.32.
The Coca-Cola Company and its global bottling partners (the Coca-Cola system), declared they are on track to meet their 2020 water replenishment aim by the end of 2015. Based on the Coca-Cola system’s global water replenishment projects to date, the system is balancing the equivalent of an estimated 94 percent of the water used in its finished beverages based on 2014 sales volume. Since 2004, Coca-Cola has replenished an estimated 153.6 billion liters of water back to communities and nature through 209 community water projects in 61 countries. The Coca-Cola system returned about 126.7 billion liters of water used in its manufacturing processes back to communities and nature through treated wastewater in 2014. These combined efforts 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.
“There is no resource more precious to human life and the health of our global ecosystems and economies than water. As a consumer of water the Coca-Cola system has a special responsibility to protect this shared resource. This is why we set an aspirational aim of being water neutral by 2020,” said Muhtar Kent, Chairman and CEO, The Coca-Cola Company. “While we have made noteworthy progress toward making that aim a reality, we are more intent than ever to give back the equivalent of all the water that we use to communities and nature. And we will continue to do so after we meet the 100 percent aim.”
