If the current supply and demand rates continue, South Africa’s water resources will be fully utilized by 2025. Water demand in South Africa is projected at 17.7 billion m3 in 2030 with household demand accounting for 34 percent of the total. Against this, current supply in South Africa amounts to 15 billion m3, and it is severely constrained by low rainfall, limited underground aquifers, and reliance on significant water transfers from neighboring countries.

Goodyear South Africa improved water use significantly by adopting a three-fold approach to saving water: The facility recycled waste water from its boiler house, collected and re-used water run-off, and ensured steam condensate from various production processes did not go to waste. The recovered water is either redirected through a newly installed, separate plumbing system to the plant's toilets or used as makeup water for cooling machinery. Water meters have also been installed at all municipal water intake points to monitor water usage and generate additional savings where possible. |

By 2030, demand for water in India will grow to almost 1.5 trillion m3, where current demand is at approximately 740 billion m3. The demand for water is likely to outstrip availability by 2050. As a result, most of India’s river basins could face severe deficit by 2030 unless concerted action is taken.

Goodyear is continuously evaluating whether upgrading systems could effectively save resources by making the systems more efficient to operate. Currently, the Indonesia facility is utilizing the onsite sanitary waste water treatment plant, which was installed in 2014. | Goodyear monitors the water stress situation for each facility around the world and takes appropriate action when necessary. In general, as part of Goodyear's strategy to conserve and recycle water, almost all facilities utilize closed-loop cooling systems when water is used for cooling materials and equipment. Systems are also in place to capture and return process water and steam condensate for reuse, reducing the need for additional fresh water. Additionally, Goodyear implemented a water sustainability strategy in 2010 to reduce water use by 15% within a 5-year period. As of 2015, we have exceeded that goal and extended it another 5 years to reduce water use intensity 33% from the baseline. Costs to implement this strategy are included in the annual operating budgets for routine maintenance. Capital expenses are allocated when large system upgrades are needed. |

We will continue to expand our monitoring to determine if there is a risk to our operational equipment. If monitoring shows continued risk Caesars’ will invest in advanced filtration equipment or more robust operational equipment.The cost of strategy is an estimate and was derived based on past facility and operations improvement projects and engineering experience. |

Description
CDP's water program motivates companies to disclose and reduce their environmental impacts by using the power of investors and customers. The data CDP collects help influential decision makers to reduce risk, capitalize on opportunities and drive action towards a more sustainable world. This dataset comes from question W3.2c asking companies to list the inherent water risks that could generate a substantive change in their business, operations, revenue or expenditure, the potential impact to their direct operations and the strategies to mitigate them.
