Description: A paper focusing on the water-related
threats and opportunities presented by climate change to the development and
conservation communities. The authors suggest that the climate change impacts
on long-lived water infrastructure for energy production, agriculture,
transportation, and supply and sanitation demand a much higher level of
coordination between economists, engineers, and ecologists in order to achieve
a viable vision of sustainable development and green economies over the coming
century. The authors also propose a methodology for integrating effective
climate adaptation into long-term water resource management and conservation.
