Water is important to Intel – it is necessary for semiconductor manufacturing and it plays a large part in our relationship with local communities. As a company, we’ve been investing in water conservation projects and setting ambitious water conservation goals for close to two decades, saving close to 64 billion gallons of water since we started tracking our progress in 1998.
