This book argues that a variety of policies will be required to
create synergies between the water-energy-food nexus sectors while
reducing trade-offs in the development of a green economy. Despite
rising demand for water, energy and food globally, the governance
of water-energy-food sectors has generally remained separate with
limited attention placed on the interactions that exist between
them. Brears provides readers with a series of in-depth case
studies of leading cities, states, nations and regions of differing
climates, lifestyles and income-levels from around the world that
have implemented a variety of policy innovations to reduce
water-energy-food nexus pressures and achieve green growth.Â
The Green Economy and the Water-Energy-Food Nexus will be of
interest to town and regional planners, resource conservation
managers, policymakers, international companies and organisations
interested in reducing water-energy-food nexus pressures,
environmental NGOs, researchers, graduate and undergraduate
students.
