Book excerpt: El agua está en el origen de la vida. Privilegio de nuestro planeta, a partir de este recurso el hombre construye sus mitos, religiones y civilizaciones. Sin embargo, debido a su explotación indiscriminada, se ha convertido en un bien caro, objeto de codicias y desafío mayor del siglo nuevo. La guerra del agua en el siglo XXI es un escenario posible. Por lo tanto la humanidad se inquieta del riesgo creciente de penurias que amenaza al planeta.

Book excerpt: La explosión demográfica que ha visto la humanidad en las últimas décadas, el imponente aumento del nivel de los ciudadanos y la acusada tendencia de la población a concentrarse en núcleos urbanos está planteando a los responsables de la gestión del agua en la ciudad retos formidables. En un marco completamente diferente al de hace solo unas décadas deben resolver problemas hasta hace bien poco inexistentes. Las soluciones que convienen al futuro no suelen ser únicas, requieren inversiones importantes y las más de las veces, al tener que conciliar intereses contrapuestos exigen mucha imaginación. Tras un breve examen de la relación agua y ciudad a través de los tiempos, recorrido histórico que evidencia la rapidez de los cambios habidos, en lo que sigue se analizan los problemas mayores, las principales actuaciones que su solución demanda y algunas de las dificultades que su implantación conlleva. Se concluye delineando unas líneas maestras que, con independencia del caso (dentro del contexto agua y ciudad, la casuística que en el mundo se puede encontrar es, prácticamente infinita) siempre convendrá seguir.

Book excerpt: Los desafíos globales a los que nos enfrentamos en los temas relacionados con el agua en el siglo XXI se centrarán más en la gestión de los recursos que en el aumento de la oferta y la obtención de los mismos pues este fue el principal objetivo del siglo XX. En un mundo que sirve como hogar para todos los pueblos y que posibilita el aprovisionamiento de las necesidades básicas para la vida, entre ellas el abastecimiento de agua de calidad, política y tecnología se deben adaptar a retos propios de un nuevo siglo. Mientras los científicos, los ingenieros y los gerentes de empresas que trabajan en el campo del agua deben ser conscientes de los nuevos cambios mundiales tanto demográficos como económicos y medio ambientales. En este documento se presenta un breve resumen de las condiciones actuales y se facilita una visión general de los retos que se habrán de afrontar en el siglo XXI en la ingeniería y en la gestión del agua ya que los recursos hídricos son los que más estrés sufren.

Download or read book Indigenous Water and Drought Management in a Changing World written by Miguel Sioui and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2022-05-19 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Indigenous Water and Drought Management in a Changing World presents a series of global case studies that examine how different Indigenous groups are dealing with various water management challenges and finding creative and culturally specific ways of developing solutions to these challenges. With contributions from Indigenous and non-Indigenous academics, scientists, and water management experts, this volume provides an overview of key water management challenges specific to Indigenous peoples, proposes possible policy solutions both at the international and national levels, and outlines culturally relevant tools for assessing vulnerability and building capacity. In recent decades, global climate change (particularly drought) has brought about additional water management challenges, especially in drought-prone regions where increasing average temperatures and diminishing precipitation are leading to water crises. Because their livelihoods are often dependent on the land and water, Indigenous groups native to those regions have direct insights into the localized impacts of global environmental change, and are increasingly developing their own adaptation and mitigation strategies and solutions based on local Indigenous knowledge (IK). Many Indigenous groups around the globe are also faced with mounting pressure from extractive industries like mining and forestry, which further threaten their water resources. The various cases presented in Indigenous Water and Drought Management in a Changing World provide much-needed insights into the particular issues faced by Indigenous peoples in preserving their water resources, as well as actionable information that can inform future scientific research and policymaking aimed at developing more integrated, region-specific, and culturally relevant solutions to these critical challenges. Includes diverse case studies from around the world Provides cutting-edge perspectives about Indigenous peoples’ water management issues and IK-based solutions Presents maps for most case studies along with a summary box to conclude each chapter

This book was released on 2001 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The North American Mosaic has four overarching features. First, it is, to the extent feasible, based on comparable information on the status and trends of major indicators of the state of the environment in Canada,Mexico, and the United States. Second, the report confirms that these three countries together make up an incredibly complex, dynamic, and interconnected ecosystem in which humans play a dominant and decisive role. Third, the report raises important and sometimes disquieting questions concerning the sustainability of some current trends. Finally, the report is a reminder that our economic, social, and physical well-being are utterly dependent on the life-sustaining services provided by nature. This report emphasizes the importance of developing mutually compatible economic, social, and environmental goals and policies across the three-country region.
