Abstract

The main objective of this research is to analyze the level of worldwide water consumption and the water use management in the industrial sector, as part of companies’ corporate governance and social responsibility. The work aims to highlight some of the main issues regarding the sustainable use of water, as a finite and vulnerable resource, essential element for life and environment. The research summarizes the main findings in this subject, comprising the specific literature written in the period of 2007 – 2015. It might be interesting to find new methodologies for future trends regarding worldwide water consumption and for monitoring water current usage.
