I’m not sure how I feel about setting an “internal price” for #water. An internal price is a price that more accurately reflects the value of a gallon of water to the organization as opposed to the price paid for that gallon of water. Everyone knows that #water is not priced correctly and should be much more expensive. An internal price helps water conservation projects get over the finish line because it shortens payback on the investment. However, TRUE economic viability determines the success or failure of a movement over the long term. This may be a dangerous practice that leads to credibility concerns. I would hate for decision makers to question the true viability of a Capture H2O water conservation project because of past credibility concerns. I welcome your thoughts. https://lnkd.in/guiSsZM3 Watermarq #sustainability Will Sarni

We shared our long history of water management in Australia, and our role internationally, and how we are forging ahead in transforming our products, tools, expertise, and program management capabilities to meet Australian and international needs. Australia’s scarce water resources and the increasing impact of climate change on our environment means eWater Group is best placed to provide creative, science-based, and trusted water management expertise and tools to meet these needs. “I’d like to see eWater Group involved in useful work promoting the public good around water resource management, including encouraging young people to seek out interesting careers in the water sector,” Michael Wilson Group CEO said. “This is not just an Australian responsibility, but a vital global need. That also builds on Australia’s ambition for a bigger, more ambitious and more influential international development agenda.” Read the full piece > https://lnkd.in/ggS_PGQv We would also like to thank Inside Water Magazine, Chris Edwards and Marina Milisavljevic for the opportunity to be part of your latest edition.

We were disappointed to hear that the cabinet has approved the Shannon-Dublin pipeline. This is an issue we have long advocated against as it is not the only viable solution for our water needs, contrary to what Uisce Éireann Irish Water says. Instead, a more ambitious and sustainable approach is needed. 🌊🔧 Reduce Leakage: An aggressive program to minimise water leakage would significantly cut down on the current wastage. 🌍💧National Water Conservation Strategy: Implementing a robust strategy for water conservation across the country is essential. This includes financial support for rainwater harvesting and grey-water reuse. 🏡💦Water Efficiency in Homes: Mandating water-efficient practices in new and existing homes could make a huge difference. 🌿💧Groundwater Aquifers: Tapping into the large groundwater aquifer in northern County Dublin could meet a significant portion of our water supply needs without the environmental impact of a new pipeline. Read our blog by Jack O'Sullivan in which we discussed this in more detail: https://lnkd.in/e4azGCqH

5moThank you for the challenge Brendon Marks! Appreciate the point that internal water pricing does not shift how water is valued in the real economy in the short-term, but we consider it an effective means of rapidly upscaling corporate contributions to water security in a way that is targeted and sensitive to contextual needs. And in the long-term, developing rigorous, data-informed methodologies for valuing water amongst corporate users could inform approaches to water pricing in the public sector, whilst recognising the need to uphold the human right to water. As evidenced in the report, internal water pricing can do more than shortening the payback on conservation investments- it is used by companies to identify & proactively mitigate material water-related risk, and improve water stewardship outcomes by offering clearer avenues for investment that respond to context-specific needs. By being transparent about the methodology used to calculate internal pricing, and using publicly available data where possible, we hope to mitigate such 'credibility concerns'.
