Water scarcity is the next big climate crisis. Water stress - not
just scarcity, but also water-quality issues caused by pollution -
is already driving the first waves of climate refugees. Rivers are
drying out before they meet the oceans and ancient lakes are
disappearing. It's increasingly clear that human mismanagement of
water is dangerously unsustainable, for both ecological and human
survival. And yet in recent years some key countries have been
quietly and very successfully addressing water stress. How are
Singapore and Israel, for example - both severely water-stressed
countries - not in the same predicament as Chennai or California?
In The Last Drop, award-winning environmental journalist Tim
Smedley meets experts, victims, activists and pioneers to find out
how we can mend the water table that our survival depends upon. He
offers a fascinating, universally relevant account of the
environmental and human factors that have led us to this point, and
suggests practical ways to address the crisis, before it's too
late.
