Water Climate Coalition

Water is the primary medium through which climate change impacts will be felt by humans and the environment. The projected impacts of irreversible climate change on water resources stand to have a dramatic effect on vulnerable people and fragile environments all over the world, not least in developing countries.

Recognising this, it is critical that decision-makers place water resources management at the heart of policy responses to climate change. Currently, many decisions affecting water resources are taken 'outside the water box', and it is the aim of the Water and Climate coalition to raise the profile of water issues in relation to climate change.
