The earth’s population will grow to 9 billion by 2050 Demand for natural resources is increasing Rising living standards will increase environmental impact The chart on the right shows how many earths would be needed to sustain the global population if everyone had the living standard of one particular country.

Climate Change risk can be addressed in two ways: Mitigation – Reducing future emissions Adaptation – Adopting new behaviors, developing new technology, and constructing infrastructure to adapt to a new climate. Addressing Climate Change represents a key element of Sustainability. It is the role of every SNV advisor to understand how their project can mitigate and adapt. Click  to continue

Sustainable thinking can improve a business in the following ways: Click  to continue Cost Savings Increasing efficiency reduces the cost of production, increasing profit margin. Environmenta l Impact Increasing efficiency reduces material, energy and water consumption. Climate Resiliency Improves ability of business to cope with climate change. Business Risk Diverse supply chains, lower costs, and increased resiliency reduces business risks. Sustainability is also a leading cause for donors and investors. As an SNV advisor you should know how to have a conversation with a donor or investor about Sustainability and Inclusive Business. Now let’s look in more depth at the types of materials, energy, and water that your business consumes and produces

If the waste is high quality, it can often be sold and re-used in another manufacturing process. Recycled material is often cheaper to purchase than non-recycled material. Recyclable Derived from plant or animal material. Can decompose and be used as fertilizer or as an energy source. Organic Try to select biodegradable materials that can be composted and turned into fertilizer. When neither recyclable or biodegradable materials are available, ensure that waste generated is disposed of properly. In developing countries, waste collection services are often inadequate or unavailable. Waste is often disposed of improperly in landfills or in waterways. Non-Recyclable VS Common types include metals, plastics, and glass. Often can be recycled. Inorganic VS Or Click  to continue

Highest quality (drinking water) Most expensive No restrictions on use Free of toxic chemicals and pathogens Opportunities to replace potable water with less expensive, greywater should be taken whenever it is safe to do so. Potable From household processes such as washing and cleaning. Re-used for cleaning, toilets, or irrigation. For irrigation, should be applied by drip systems or under mulch, not via spray. Always test for toxic chemicals and for excessive salinity. Greywater Contaminated by faecal material and dangerous pathogens. Must be disposed of carefully. If de-watered (dried) and composted for a year or more, the heat will destroy potential pathogens. Manure can then be used as fertilizer. Blackwater Contaminated by chemicals and is unsuitable for consumption, irrigation, or release as effluent into environment. Must be disposed of properly to prevent contamination of land or water sources. Toxic Water Always test water prior to use or release and comply with local environmental regulations.

Identify water risks and opportunities. Helps to answer the following questions: How many sites are in extremely water-scarce areas? Which sites are at greatest risk? How that will change in the future? How much production is generated from at risk sites? How many suppliers are in water scarce areas now and will be in 2025? Evaluate the external impacts, business risks, opportunities and management plans related to water use and discharge at a specific site or operation. For use by organisations who wish to evaluate water-related external impacts, business risks and sufficiency of management plans at specific sites. Use these tools primarily with agriculture and manufacturing projects to map water use and identify risks associated with water scarcity.
