Water will be the 21st century's oil - a much sought-after but dwindling natural resource. The biggest difference: a world without oil is possible; a world without water is not.

This session will begin with a brief introduction to the global water crisis, looking at how our growing worldwide population, the increasing pressures on our limited water supply and our use (and misuse) of water impact our ability to live sustainably. The session will also look at identifying and overcoming the regulatory, behavioral and technological barriers to water reuse & water independence in buildings as we design for the next decade and those to follow.
