Shafaqna India: Some 2.2 billion people worldwide still lack access to safely managed drinking water services, according to the World Health Organization (WHO).
Currently underway in Stockholm from 24 to 28 August, the 35th World Water Week meeting highlights the crucial link between water and global warming, under the theme, Water For Climate Action.
At the core of sustainable development and basic human survival, safe drinking water is critical for socio-economic development, energy and food production, and healthy ecosystems.
Meanwhile, a reliable water supply is also at the heart of adaptation efforts in an increasingly warming world.
