Ecofin Celebrates World Water Day by Raising Awareness of the Global Water Crisis

LEAWOOD, KS / ACCESSWIRE / March 22, 2021 / Ecofin, the sustainable investment firm, celebrates World Water Day by sharing special content related to #WorldWaterDay. Podcasts and videos shared will highlight the importance of water as an asset class, introduce ways to address water scarcity through investments devoted to solving the water crisis and bring awareness to the need for safe water and sanitation.

World Water Day, held on 22 March every year since 1993, celebrates water and raises awareness of the 2.2 billion people living without access to safe water. The theme of World Water Day 2021 is valuing water. The value of water is about much more than its price – water has enormous and complex value for our households, food, culture, health, education, economics and the integrity of our natural environment. If we overlook any of these values, we risk mismanaging this finite, irreplaceable resource.1

In conjunction with commemorating World Water Day, Ecofin is proud to highlight Water.org, an organization helping families around the world get access to safe water and sanitation. Water.org’s mission is to empower people in need with these life-changing resources – giving women hope, children health and families a bright future. Ecofin donates 5% of net revenues from its water investment platform annually in support of Water.org and its initiatives.
