Target example

[Company name] will improve water use efficiency in water-stressed areas, aiming to reduce water withdrawal per unit of output by [target percentage]% by [target year], compared to a [baseline year] baseline.

Target Source: Adapted from SBTN

Additional Target Notes

SBTN establishes that: - for a pressure reduction target of 25% or less, the company may choose a target date of five years; - for a pressure reduction target above 25%, the company may choose a target date of up to ten years.
