757Covidien Ltd.IE00B68SQD29EQ0000000003339617COV USIrelandIndirect use: sufficient amounts of good quality freshwater available for use across your value chainImportantAs a Medical Device and Supplies manufacturer, most of our operations require clean and controlled environments that result in the heavy use of HVAC equipment. In turn, and with the aim of improving our energy efficiencies, most of our Chilled Water systems to control temperature and humidity have been converted from "Air Cooled" to "Water-cooled". Hence, available water is required to reject heat from those systems resulting in evaporation, mostly from cooling towers.

We know water is a valuable, limited natural resource and we strive to reduce our water consumption and identify water recycling options. CSX used over 23 million gallons of harvested rainwater in 2013 (up from 15 million in 2012) at the Curtis Bay Piers facility in Baltimore. This directly reduces the quantity of water purchased from the municipality. CSX is actively seeking ways to expand rainwater harvesting where feasible.

In the steel and oil and gas industries, water is a key input to the production process. Water is used less intensively in producing railroad ties than in steel and fuel. Access to sufficient amounts of good quality freshwater is important to our customers for their potable water and production needs. Among others, our customers include the two largest water-consuming industries in the world: energy production and agriculture.

Description

Complete open data set for companies that responded to the 2014 water questionnaire.
Through our water program we target the largest listed companies in the world, as determined by market capitalization, in sectors for which water is a material issue. We currently cover the Global 500, S&P 500 and FTSE 100 indices as well as the largest companies in Australia, Japan and South Africa.

Water is also incorporated into CDP’s supply chain program. In this initiative, large multinational companies (our supply chain members) issue CDP’s water questionnaire to a number of their suppliers. This exercise allows companies to investigate the water risk in their supply chain and gather vital information about water use outside their direct operations.

This year, we have invited approximately 2,300 companies to respond to CDP’s water questionnaire through our water program. This data set excludes private responders.
