Global Water Crisis. Next station: The Inferno!

More about the book

Exploring the complexities of water conflict, this book delves into the historical and contemporary issues surrounding access to water resources. It highlights how disputes often stem from territorial claims, resource competition, and strategic interests, rather than being solely about water. The Pacific Institute's Water Conflict Chronology serves as a significant resource, documenting nearly 6,000 years of water-related violence. The text underscores the urgent need for cooperative institutions to prevent escalating tensions in the face of a looming global water crisis.
