The
BBC is currently staging a week-long event called "
The Water Debate".
On the debate's homepage you can find out about some of the world's water-related problems... and more positively a few of the potential solutions!
In order to get you started the BBC's ace environment correspondent
Alex Kirby has written an excellent
introduction to the role of water in
international health, food security, politics + business...
In particular, Alex emphasises the need to use finite water resources
wisely, equitably + sustainably.
If you would like to find out more about the importance of improving access to
clean water +
better sanitation Earth-Info.Net recommends that you visit
Water Aid's website.
