What can the world learn from California as water challenges become the planet’s greatest risk?
Sao Paulo. Thailand. North Korea. India. Pakistan. California is not alone in needing superhero-powers to define its response to water crises. What lessons can California teach other water-challenged regions? What can California learn from them? How can the best science lead to adaptations on the ground? What are the roles of the world’s businesses and corporations, which have the market power to leverage changes in how water is used to grow crops, produce computer chips, and generate electricity?
Join Circle of Blue on August 25 for a special interactive, virtual town hall live from World Water Week in Stockholm the One Water Leadership Summit in San Francisco.
