The Coca-Cola Company is the world's largest beverage company. When it comes to protecting the planet, water is a top priority. Clean, accessible water is essential to the health of communities. It's also critical to the ecosystem and indispensable for economic prosperity.
Our long-term goal with water is as simple as it is ambitious: we want to return to nature an amount of water equal to what is used in our beverages and in their production. We recently announced that we met this goal four years early! One way we do this is by supporting watershed projects that conserve and replenish water in local communities. We support 100 such projects across North America. Through partnerships with World Wildlife Fund, The Nature Conservancy, the U.S Forest Service and local groups, we are helping to revitalize and restore some of our country's most critical freshwater river basins and streams.
In 2016, we announced that our partnership with the USDA, U.S. Forest Service and National Forest Foundation achieved a 1 billion liter replenishment milestone. This goal was achieved through 7 projects at 13 watersheds that provide drinking water to 60+ million Americans. Looking forward, this partnership aims to replenish another billion liters in national forestland watersheds through 2018.
The National Fish and Wildlife Foundation (NFWF) protects and restores the nation's fish, wildlife, plants and habitats. Chartered by Congress in 1984, NFWF directs public conservation dollars to the most pressing environmental needs and matches those investments with private contributions. NFWF works with government, nonprofit and corporate partners to find solutions for the most intractable conservation challenges. Using science-based conservation and competitive grant programs, over the last 38 years NFWF has funded more than 6,000 organizations and generated a total conservation impact of $7.4 billion.

For over 100 years, Shell Oil Company has enabled human progress by providing innovative and sustainable energy solutions for today and generations to come. Shell's attitude to conservation includes a science-based approach for making decisions about where and how we deploy resources that directly offset or mitigate real impacts, promote nature, protect wildlife and their habitat, and preserve valuable natural resources in all 50 states where we operate.
Through partnerships with environmental NGOs in the U.S., Shell has protected more than 13 million acres of wetlands, conserved more than 1.8 million acres of critical habitat and with the hard work of our employee volunteers, cleaned and removed over 600,000 pounds of debris from shorelines.
