Sustainability In Your Ear: Culligan CEO Scott Clawson Maps The Future Of Water https://elkcreeknotes.beehiiv.com/p/52250179-3216-4570-b7fd-3b760f8e7441?draft=true&utm_source=elkcreeknotes.beehiiv.com&utm_medium=newsletter&utm_campaign=sustainability-in-your-ear-transcript-terracycle-founder-tom-szaky-on-building-the-circular-economy. https://magic.beehiiv.com/v1/d7da504b-6636-4a49-a9d5-3a3bcaa5c798?email={{email}} to receive transcripts. Turn on any faucet in America, and chances are the water meets federal safety standards. Yet Americans buy 50 billion https://earth911.com/business-policy/whats-wrong-with-bottled-water/ annually—enough to circle the Earth 200 times if laid end to end. The bottles take 450 years to decompose, and recent research found that a single liter of bottled water can shed up to 240,000 pieces of microplastic that we ultimately consume. Meanwhile, 37% of global drinking water remains contaminated, with PFAS "forever chemicals" and lead appearing even in neighboring homes on the same street. Meet Scott Clawson, Chairman and CEO of https://www.culliganinternational.com, the nearly 90-year-old company that's become the global leader in water services by making filtered water more accessible than single-use plastic. Under Clawson's leadership, Culligan serves 170 million people worldwide, and the company's filtration systems have helped avoid the use of 45 billion plastic bottles annually.  The company has https://wp.culliganinternational.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/Culligan-International-2024-ESG-Report-Final.pdf: achieving net positive water impact by 2050 and cutting scope one and two emissions intensity by 40% before 2035. After completing https://thewatercouncil.com/waterstewardship/wave/, Culligan discovered that even testing filtration equipment was wasteful, leading the company to develop dry-testing methods that eliminate water waste before machines reach consumers. The company has electrified 25% of its fleet and donated 9 million liters of water to communities in need in 2024 alone. Clawson's approach to sustainability isn't just operational—it's personal. A decade ago, while vacationing in the Bahamas, he encountered a beach covered in plastic waste. "That's when my inner balance was sparked to make sure we do more than just use our planet to make money, but let's use our planet to help it be a better place to live," he recalls. As water scarcity intensifies globally, Clawson believes the consumer holds the power: "Every time you pick something up off the shelf, you are voting. You're sending a signal to a company." His message is clear—test your water, understand what's in it, and invest in point-of-use filtration rather than contributing to the plastic crisis.You can learn more about Culligan International at https://www.culliganinternational.com. - Subscribe to Sustainability In Your Ear on https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/earth911-com-sustainability-in-your-ear/id1384301001?mt=2 - cFollow Sustainability In Your Ear on https://www.spreaker.com/user/earth911, https://www.iheart.com/podcast/966-Earth911com-Sustain-29715785/, or https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOEAu3yE_OGPAQR9o8o9XeA/
