The
World's Water: 2002-2003
The Biennial Report on Freshwater Resources
The third volume of The World's Water is an effort to explore,
understand, and solve a variety of critical water issues that
include the global water crisis, global warming and water, privatization
and globalization of water, and water-related conflicts. The
central thrust of The World's Water 2002-2003 is that we must rethink the
way we capture, distribute, and use water if we are to meet the
challenges of increasing scarcity and growing populations. Other
chapters cover the increasingly contentious debates over globalization
and privatization of water, new measures of water well-being,
the risks of climate change, and new information on dams and water.
