About freshwater and water security

People鈥檚 lives and livelihoods depend on access to water. We have long overstretched this precious resource, with freshwater ecosystems disappearing three times faster than forests, and many countries now facing water shortages. The world must equitably and sustainably manage water to provide for a growing human population, to protect life on land and in freshwater ecosystems, and to mitigate the impacts of climate change.
