California could face 10% less water supply by 2040.

So what can be done about it?

In this clip, Jason Morrison of the Pacific Institute explains the California Water Resilience Initiative — a collaborative effort bringing businesses together to help close that gap.

The goal: Restore or protect 1 million acre-feet of water per year by 2030.

That’s not one single project. It’s a portfolio of solutions across the state that could include:

• Groundwater recharge and soil health programs in the Central Valley
• Source water protection and forest restoration in the Sierra Nevada
• Urban resilience strategies like water recycling and stormwater capture

The idea is that when companies, communities, and governments work together at the watershed scale, they can create real impact on water supply and resilience.
