Today, the Pacific Institute is proud to launch an ambitious new strategic plan through 2026.

See the plan here: https://lnkd.in/gWXYnHXV We’re also thrilled to announce a $1 million gift from our Board Chair Sally Liu to expand our global impact through 2030 by jumpstarting a fundraising effort. Read the announcement here: https://lnkd.in/gkd3Tban “The Pacific Institute is uniquely positioned to catalyze the transformation to water resilience,” said Liu. “I invite others to support this critical work at this critical time—by investing in the organization at the epicenter of water resilience solutions so deeply needed.” What’s new? First, we’re focused on four Impact Areas with outsized potential for accelerating action: ? Water Equity ? Water Efficiency & Reuse ? Nature-Based Solutions ? Corporate Water Stewardship Second, we are expanding efforts to accelerate implementation of water resilience solutions by companies, governments, frontline communities, and other levers of change. We’ll also increase our focus on unlocking systems-level opportunities to scale solutions by engaging with networks and informing and influencing policy. We’re so grateful to step into the next phase of the journey toward 2030 with hundreds of amazing collaborators, partners, philanthropists, and supporters.

关于我们
The Pacific Institute envisions a world in which society, the economy, and the environment have the water they need to thrive now and in the future. In pursuit of this vision, the Institute creates and advances solutions to the world’s most pressing water challenges, such as unsustainable water management and use; climate change; environmental degradation; food, fiber, and energy production for a growing population; and basic lack of access to fresh water and sanitation. Since 1987, the Pacific Institute has cut across traditional areas of study and actively collaborated with a diverse set of stakeholders, including policymakers, scientists, corporate leaders, international organizations such as the United Nations, advocacy groups, and local communities. This interdisciplinary and nonpartisan approach helps bring diverse interests together to forge effective real-world solutions.

Heather Cooley, Pacific Institute Director of Research, was recently featured in a public service announcement for Rain Ready California, hosted by the Sacramento County Department of Water Resources, the California Stormwater Quality Association, and the Sacramento Stormwater Quality Partnership.? ? Rain Ready California highlights local examples of stormwater capture projects and inspires residents to get involved. ? As found in a recent Pacific Institute report, California – with large expanses of urbanized areas with rooftops, roads, and other hard surfaces - is the ninth-largest producer of urban stormwater runoff in the United States. The #Sacramento region alone generates an average of 65 million gallons of stormwater runoff each year. Stormwater capture can provide benefits like boosting water supply, reducing flood risk, improving water quality conditions, and more.? ?
