About

The current state of our water supply has been called a crisis in slow motion, facing a perfect storm of higher demands from a growing population, changing weather patterns due to climate change and safety threats caused by decaying infrastructure. In this book, we explore the ecological effects, the challenges surrounding water demand versus energy use, safety and sustainability issues and potential solutions from cloud seeding to urban planning that accounts for rising floodwaters.
