Coca-Cola Spain and WWF Spain worked together from 2008 to 2013 to restore areas in the Guadiana River Basin. The Guadiana River Basin covers approximately 12% of the Iberian Peninsula. Portions of the basin are highly impacted by intensive flow regulation, groundwater extraction, water contamination, loss of biodiversity and territory fragmentation. During the first phase of the project, Coca-Cola Spain and WWF Spain worked to restore four different areas impacted by fire. For the second phase they worked to restore Mediterranean forests around the protected "Las Tablas de Daimiel" wetland and reduce water demand from surrounding irrigated lands. The restoration activities have and will continue to improve water infiltration and runoff processes, improve soil conditions, restore native vegetation, and promote creation of ecological corridors in the basin.
