A fresh look at the world's water crises, and the existing and
emerging solutions that can be used to solve them It is not your
imagination: water crises are more frequent. Our twentieth-century
systems for providing the water that grows food, sustains cities,
and supports healthy ecosystems are failing to meet the demands of
growing population and the challenges brought on by climate change.
But the grim news reports-of empty reservoirs, withering crops,
failing ecosystems-need not be cause for despair, argues
award-winning author David Sedlak.Communities on the front lines of
previous water crises have pioneered approaches that are ready to
be applied elsewhere. Some have resolved shortages by enhancing
water-use efficiency, and others have used moments of crisis to
resolve historic disagreements over water rights. Still others have
employed treatment technologies that unlock vast quantities of
untapped water resources.Sedlak identifies the challenges that
society faces, including ineffective policies and outdated
infrastructure, and the myriad of tools at our disposal-from
emerging technologies in desalination to innovations for recycling
wastewater and capturing more of the water that falls on fields and
cities. He offers an informed and hopeful approach for rethinking
our assumptions about the way that water is managed. With this
knowledge we can create a future with clean, abundant, and
affordable water for all.
