Pillar 2: Transforming the planet

Aim 5: Achieve Water Neutrality by 2030

Water is necessary for our survival. Human cultures have progressed over time and have been shaped by the basic need of water. Unfortunately, fresh water is not evenly distributed or accessible around the world, and it is found disproportionately in areas where people do not reside. Vedanta plans to ensure that we give back more than we take, thereby ensuring water security for all.
