Improving Urban Water Resilience
Urban water systems and public well‐being are threatened by factors that include aging infrastructure, population growth and density, and conditions related to climate change.
Floods and droughts have been particularly hard on urban areas, with short‐ and long‐term effects running the gamut of environmental, human (physical and emotional), and economic devastation.
Cities and organizations around the world are devising innovative ways to achieve water resilience; more can be done through targeted research to raise awareness and understanding.
