What is the rationale behind GWICA Resource Library?
Water is a finite resource that is under increasing pressure from population growth, climate change, and pollution—and such pressures create real business risks for the apparel industry. Information about water is scattered across a wide variety of sources, including scientific journals, government reports, and industry publications. This can make it difficult for apparel brands and suppliers to find the information they need to make informed decisions about water use and management.
The GWICA Resource Library aims to build water resilience of the people, business, and planet by providing information and tools that can help entities across the apparel supply chain use water more efficiently and sustainably.
What does the GWICA Resource Library entail?
