to be net positive on water across all its operations by 2030. Brady said"strong partnerships with environmental nonprofits and local governments, and … our water stewardship investments" were what drove Intel over the line in the aforementioned countries.

Per the table, Intel's operations in the US return 106 percent of the water used, in Costa Rica it returned 103 percent, and in Bangalore, India, it restored 394 percent of the water it used last year.
