The Water Initiative for Net Zero (WINZ) promotes water’s role in reducing global heating and avoiding climate chaos. #Water4Climate #Water4NetZero
Joined October 2021
Water is central to mitigation. As @Cop30noBrasil opens in Belém (10–21 Nov), we're tracking how “Water, Cities, Infrastructure, Waste” thematic days translate into real cuts in emissions across utilities and wastewater. Explore evidence-led options: https://t.co/9uQsrCuDNM

Did you know? 🛫 Wastewater generates nearly as much emissions as the aviation industry. Most don't. That's why we exist. To work with partners to highlight opportunities where water-related actions can have a big impact on reducing emissions. #WorldWaterDay
