Waterplan

We’re thrilled to announce we’ll be presenting at Semicon Japan 2024 this Friday, December 13th! 73% of semiconductor leaders said that water and raw materials pose the greatest environmental risks to their business (WTW). And yet, nearly 13% of the industry’s production occurs in regions with extreme water scarcity, while 47% takes place in areas with above-average water scarcity (Frost, K & Hua, I. 2019). This Friday, we’ll present Waterplan’s AI SaaS platform solution to unify all water accounting data to make faster, smarter, data-driven actions across operations and in the supply chain, specifically tailored to the semiconductor industry. Thank you to the SEMICON organizers 枝礼子 (Reiko Eda), Jordan Famularo, PhD and Alua Suleimenova for the invitation! SEMI Sustainability

If a flood happened in one of your business' site's locations, where would the flood water go? What structures would it cover? Would business continuity be affected? To ensure flood preparedness, understanding your site's flood zone is key. Meagan Knowlton, Senior Water Advisor at Waterplan, highlights the power of flood modeling and mapping to predict flood paths and affected structures during extreme events. By analyzing global and local data, like historical rainfall trends, climate projections, drainage capacity and real-time site-specific monitoring, you can work towards building resilience. To mitigate floods risk, you can: - Improve drainage - Update flood protection plans - Train employees. #FloodPreparedness #ClimateResilience #WaterManagement

If you’ve read the news this past month, you’ve probably heard about #WaterRisk. Floods in Spain and droughts in New York City have put water at the center stage of the public eye as the fury of the DANA events and steady creep of drought watches have gotten people talking about how to mitigate these risks. Why did these extreme weather events happen? Could these locations have been better prepared to brace for them? How? Join us for a webinar on the power of #LocalData to predict, prepare for and react to these hazardous conditions. Because although contrasting scenarios, the same lesson can be learnt from the events in Spain and New York: The key to managing water risk lies in data-driven preparation and response. #Register here: https://hubs.la/Q02YW84-0
