More Information
Conversations about climate and water tend to focus on how climate change could threaten water resources and intensify floods and droughts. What’s missing has been an understanding of how water affects climate: specifically, the opportunities we have to work with the water cycle to support ecosystem processes that help regulate climate. In this presentation, author Judith D. Schwartz will give examples from around the world of water innovators and share why understanding how water works—how it moves across the landscape and through the atmosphere—can help us address our many environmental challenges.
