As the world experiences increasing water challenges,
Grundfos is taking the lead in raising awareness and inspiring
change by partnering in an upcoming inspirational documentary that
shows how technologies and innovations are changing how we manage
water.
BJERRINGBRO, Denmark, April 22,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- As the world comes together to
honor Earth Day, Grundfos proudly unveils its partnership with
Brave Blue World Studios and highlights its commitment to advancing
water sustainability by taking part in the documentary 'Our Blue
World: A Water Odyssey', which will be premiered in in New York City on April
22, 2024.
This important documentary follows the passionate individuals at
the forefront of tackling the global water crisis, showcasing
innovative solutions and advocating for a water-secure future. From
communities in Africa to urban
centers around the world, "Our Blue World" sheds light on the
challenges and triumphs in the quest for water sustainability.
A highlight of the documentary is a segment filmed in
Burundi, Africa, showcasing the impactful work of
Grundfos and NGO Amazi Water. Through combined efforts, Grundfos
and Amazi Water transformed the lives and communities of over 2.5
million Burundians by ensuring access to clean water with
solar-powered pumps; enabling children to attend school, families
to cultivate crops, and fostering a healthier future for all.
Ulrik Gernow, Group EVP and COO of Grundfos said: "This
partnership with Brave Blue World Studios reaffirms our dedication
to addressing the world's water challenges and our ambition to
mobilize a movement for a more sustainable and water-secure future
for generations to come. As a society, we need to recognize that
water holds incredible value for the future of our world but our
relationship with water is out of balance and we aim to inspire
change to take good care of this precious resource."
"Our Blue World: A Water Odyssey" builds upon the resounding
success of the studio's debut documentary, "Brave Blue World:
Racing to Solve Our Water Crisis," which was featured on Netflix
and boasted renowned narrators like Liam
Neeson, along with celebrities such as Matt Damon and Jaden
Smith.
As Grundfos celebrates Earth Day, and our planet, the business
is highlighting the urgency and importance of water sustainability
by boldly declaring its commitment to safeguarding the world's most
precious resource – water. Together, Grundfos is committed to
creating innovative smart water solutions and leading the way
towards a more water secure future.
Stay tuned for future announcement on when and where the film
will be available for public viewing.
