Require UK-based manufacturers to run on a closed-loop water cycle
UK based manufacturers must be made to run on closed-loop water cycles, that make them fully responsible for their water usage, impact on the environment, and removal of hazardous waste contaminants, and immensely reduce the UK’s fresh water requirements, from its ever depleting resources.
In a WRAP study from 2011, the UK's manufacturing sector used over 550,000ML (megaliters/1,000,000L) of fresh water in 2006. Companies must be made liable for the proper filtering and reuse of all its non-consumptive water in order to hugely reduce their impact on the environment. Examples such as L'Oreal's closed-loop water cycle in their Spain, Italy and Russian plants, prove the UK can begin to minimize its carbon footprint and the damage inflicted upon its resources.
