CROSSTALKS presents
BRIDGES OVER TROUBLED WATERS
Since 1990, 1.7 billion people have gained access to safe drinking water, but 884 million people are still without. By 2050, at least one in four people is likely to live in a country affected by chronic or recurring shortages of fresh water.
This 5th CROSSTALKS book presents a series of great academic and corporate projects that address the challenges associated with water governance and environmental issues, intertwined with contributions by world-class artists who give us a language to discuss these challenges in a metaphorical yet often crystal clear way.
With water government as one of the 7 critical issues at the upcoming RIO20+ Conference, this book forms the perfect background literature.
