Water security, climate change and sustainable development
Water security, climate change and sustainable development[electronic resource] /edited by Asit K. Biswas, Cecilia Tortajada. - Singapore :Springer Singapore :2016. - xiv, 168 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm. - Water resources development and management,1614-810X. - Water resources development and management..

Water, climate change and sustainable development: an overall framework -- Climate change, resource efficiency and sustainability: highlights of Nestle's practices and achievements -- Adapting to climate variability and change in India: already a reality for water managers? -- Integrated water resources management and adaptation to climate change -- Downstream Implications of Climate Change in the Himalayas -- The business case for water -- Embracing and leading the journey of sustainable development by private sector actors -- Water, climate change and sustainable development: an industry example -- Economic growth and climate proofing Asia through sustainable water resources management -- Will rivers become a cause of conflict, rather than co-operation, in South Asia?

This book pursues a comprehensive approach so as to arrive at a better understanding of the implications of climate change on sustainable development, focusing on the perspective of water. Climate change is one of today's most pressing global issues and will become increasingly important in the decades to come, as societies will feel its pervasive impacts in many aspects of their lives. Given that the majority of these climate change impacts will be felt through the medium of water, the book explores the interrelationships and inter-linkages between water, climate change and sustainable development.
