- 1 Our water use and water use ratio (efficiency) figures have been recalculated for the Europe Group for 2004, 2005, and 2006, based on changes to the organization. These changes affected our system water use ratio for these three years.
Water will always be important to our Company, and we are continually working to reduce our impact and minimize our use. Our goal is to improve our water efficiency by 20% by 2012, compared with a 2004 baseline.
Replenish
On a global basis, we will expand support of healthy watersheds and sustainable community water programs to balance the water used in our finished beverages.
Recycle
Our goal is to ensure the water we use in our manufacturing processes, everywhere in the world, will be returned to the environment at a level that supports aquatic life by 2010 through comprehensive wastewater treatment. This ongoing recycling effort is critical to preserving local water resources -- and inspiring others to take similar steps.
