Lauren Moore, our Business Operations Manager, shares her thoughts…


“I joined Envireau Water as a geography graduate in 2018 with an interesting art background. I have since been given every opportunity to explore all aspects of Envireau Water, whether it be using my academic background for technical work, or my creativity for marketing and business development. Through those opportunities I developed a strong commercial interest and drive to develop a career in business. Supported by a fantastic team, I am delighted to have started my MSc at Cranfield and am incredibly grateful for the opportunities Envireau Water have presented me with.”


The entire Envireau Water team are delighted for Lauren and wish her every success throughout her MSc. We pride ourselves on investing in our academically diverse team and supporting them to expand their knowledge in the fields that interest them.

World Day to combat Desertification and Drought 2025

By Rachael Plant • June 17, 2025
Desertification and drought are two of the most pressing environmental challenges of the 21st century. Exacerbated by climate change, the devastating effects of both can be felt across the globe, with an estimated 40% of the world's population impacted by water scarcity events. As global temperatures continue to rise, and severe weather events increase, regions across the globe face the potential for increased frequency and severity of droughts, often progressing rapidly and unexpectedly. As of 29th May this year, a drought was officially declared in parts of the UK, having experienced the driest start to Spring in over 130 years. Whilst the recent rainfall at the start of June has helped to stabilise concerns, uncertainty for the months ahead still remain. How is the UK landscape affected by drought?

Securing your Water Bottling Plant against Climate Change

By Rachael Plant • June 11, 2025
As the threat of climate change continues to grow, the occurrence of extreme weather events is becoming increasingly common across the UK, with the rising frequency of flooding and drought posing significant challenges nationwide. After the recent dry spell experienced across the UK, one thing is clear: climate change is a hazard affecting all industries and it is more important than ever for businesses to take proactive steps to secure their water supplies against these unpredictable weather events. We asked our Principal Hydrogeologist, Shona Symon , for her thoughts on the matter within the bottled water industry. Shona, can you explain the importance for operators to safeguard their water bottling plant against the impacts of climate change, and what challenges may arise if not adequately protected?
