Coca-Cola & Heineken join call for preserving EU Water Framework Directive

Twenty-three companies signed the “Water is Everyone’s business” statement calling on the European Commission to preserve the Water Framework Directive in its current form, rather than revise it. The signatories include among others beverage manufacturers Coca-Cola and Heineken, standing with the 375,000 European citizens who have urged the EU governments and the European Commission to preserve the European Union’s Water Framework Directive in its current form, as advocated by the #Protectwater campaign.

The statement outlines that the Directive provides a “stable regulatory framework” and is a “key law to ensuring that freshwater ecosystems in Europe are protected and restored and water is sustainably managed.”
