We have chosen water; a precious resource.
We have chosen water; a precious resource.
Water is precious to life and access to clean water is considered a fundamental human right. However, in many parts of the world access to both clean water and sanitation systems is limited, resulting in high rates of water related disease and death. The natural water cycle is frequently adapted to provide water for drinking, farming, energy production, industry and a number of other functions. These differing demands can put pressure on water supply systems and create social and environmental conflict. In order that water security is guaranteed for future generations sustainable methods of water management and conservation will need to be increasingly used.
