Freshwater Issues: A Reference Handbook (Contemporary World Issues)

Grenetta Thomassey
0/5 ( ratings)
Read Download
Battles have been fought, lives have been lost, countries divided-and all for one reason-water. "Freshwater Issues" provides a quick education in the basics and essential issues of freshwater management. From water supply and resource information to the role of water in ecosystems, the coverage also provides global water data, examines uncertainties about future water supplies, and addresses technological advances in the development of water resources and environmental safeguards. Thorough treatment is given to water rights, allocation issues, and U.S. water laws and their many regional variations. This is followed by an explanation of the economics of water, from ownership and pricing to social impact and discussions of often-conflicting public, environmental, and private interests. The war over water has just begun.
