England initiative: The Rippleffect
Companies can save around 30% on their water and effluent bills by joining the Rippleffect
By reducing water consumption you can also reduce the carbon footprint of your business, for example, for every 1 m3 of water saved, you will save approximately 1 kg of CO2 equivalent1.
Who can benefit?
The Rippleffect initiative is free and can benefi t businesses of all sizes in England. Every workplace can reduce its water consumption to some degree, and there are always improvements to be made!
So, whether your business is an office, hotel or restaurant, with washrooms and kitchen facilities, or a factory with processing lines, the Rippleffect can help you reduce water use and save money.

Closing date for registration is 14 September 2009.
