Nations Urged to Recognize Water Crisis
The International Union for Conservation of Nature urged world leaders at the World Water Forum to do more to protect rivers and wetlands which provide energy and clean drinking water. Business leaders asked the international community to recognize the inextricable links between water, energy and climate change at the Copenhagen climate change talks in December. A water advisor to the UN noted that the global water crisis is where climate change was five years ago on the public and political radar. The WWF website is at http://www.worldwaterforum5.org/
