Celebrating World Earth Day 2024: Planet vs. Plastics

Happy World Earth Day 2024!

Today, as we celebrate, it’s an opportunity to reflect on our collective commitment to preserving and protecting our planet’s precious resources.

This year’s theme, Planet vs. Plastics, serves as a reminder of the critical importance of environmental conservation and sustainability, particularly in addressing the global challenge of plastic pollution.

At the Institute of Water, we seek to better equip our members to do their day jobs, advocate for the sector and improve the environment and lives of their communities. Our Environmental Sustainability Policy“Smaller carbon footprint, mindful about water”, underscores our commitment to achieving these objectives.

Institute of Water members play a vital role in advocating for responsible water management and environmental stewardship. Whether through their work in the water sector, holding or pursuing Environment Registration, or attending one of our related events, they are actively contributing to the protection and enhancement of the environment.

Let’s seize this day as an opportunity to reaffirm our commitment to the environment. Whether it’s reducing your own plastic waste, participating in a plastic clean-up event, or donating to a related charitable cause, every action, regardless of its size, contributes to the greater good.

Let’s continue to work together to make a positive impact on our planet.
