The challenges of climate change

The effects of climate change do not spare water supply companies either. At Lake Constance, for example, they are evident in changes to water quality or the colonisation of the area by plants and animals from far-flung regions. Added to this is the population’s ever-increasing demand for water. Clean (drinking) water is becoming an increasingly scarce resource in our world. In times of climate change, it is therefore all the more important to raise awareness of the need to use this precious resource sustainably. Clean drinking water cannot be taken for granted – without a functioning water supply infrastructure, we would soon be left high and dry. We want to raise awareness of this.

“Source of the Future. Water for Generations”

We are therefore delighted that, in our Public Communications division, we have recently added the topic of water to our portfolio, alongside the sectors of energy, construction, property and mobility. We are supporting Bodensee-Wasserversorgung, whose primary task is to provide four million people in Baden-Württemberg with drinking water of the highest quality. To ensure a secure supply of drinking water for decades to come, Bodensee-Wasserversorgung is planning the project “Source of the Future. Water for Generations”. A series of construction measures are to be carried out, such as the expansion and upgrading of the water extraction and treatment facilities on Lake Constance. We are delighted that our Public Communications team is providing communications support for this diverse and exciting project in collaboration with our partner agency, Carta.
