Amazon Achieves Water Positive Status in India Ahead of 2027 Goal

Analysed 19 Jun 2026·2 sources analysed·India·Business
Amazon Achieves Water Positive Status in India Ahead of 2027 GoalPreviousNext

Amazon has become water positive in India ahead of its 2027 target, meaning it now replenishes more water than it consumes across its operations, including data centres, offices, and warehouses. The company achieved this by reducing water use through efficiency measures and community projects like watershed restoration. Amazon's Indian data centres do not use water for cooling. This milestone comes amid growing concerns over the environmental impact of water-intensive AI data centres in water-scarce India.
