WD News: The World Resources Institute (WRI) projects that under a business-as-usual scenario, the world will face a 56% freshwater deficit by 2030, placing urgent pressure on businesses to rethink the way water resources are managed.

“By partnering with Microsoft and using our joint water data capabilities, we can help companies achieve their climate and business goals all at once,” said Christophe Beck, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Ecolab.
