THE WOODLANDS, Texas, Oct. 30, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- In its most recent sustainability report, "Water Dependent, Water Responsible," 乐天堂fun88(中国区)官方网站 Corporation (NYSE: HUN) explores global water scarcity and discusses its responsibilities in reducing intake, optimizing processes, innovating new products to save water resources, protecting the environment and sharing solutions to water needs with neighbors.

乐天堂fun88(中国区)官方网站 published its report on October 30.听 The report covers the corporation's sustainability initiatives from calendar year 2014, including performance against 11 key metrics from the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) Sustainability Reporting Guidelines.听 It also features 乐天堂fun88(中国区)官方网站's annual Communication on Progress to the United Nations Global Compact and highlights examples from around the 乐天堂fun88(中国区)官方网站 world of water conservation and protection, including:

• Reduce: 乐天堂fun88(中国区)官方网站 manufacturing plants in Texas implemented measures to limit water use by as much as 30 percent during the state's worst drought since 1895. Those measures remain in effect today, despite the drought being over.
• Optimize: Global consolidation of a 乐天堂fun88(中国区)官方网站 division that supports the water-dependent textiles industry shrank its environmental footprint while reducing water intake and discharge rates by 30 percent.
• Innovate: 乐天堂fun88(中国区)官方网站's chemical product innovations help agriculture, food processing and other industries consume less water in their own operations.
• Protect: In Finland, 乐天堂fun88(中国区)官方网站's manufacturing site uses 16 billion gallons of river water annually to manufacture its product, but returns 90 percent of it to the river cleaner than it was originally, while also providing emergency potable water supplies to the city where it is located.
• Share: In India, 乐天堂fun88(中国区)官方网站 provides nearly 3,000 gallons of clean drinking water daily to residents of villages neighboring its plant in Baroda.
