There is no international binding agreement for water like the one reached for the climate in Paris in 2015, or framework like that established to protect nature in Montreal last year, despite dire warnings of the risks humanity faces if water is not managed better.
Nearly 700 groups including state and local governments, non-profit groups and some companies submitted water-related plans before and during this week’s conference in New York. Projects ranged from investing in ’climate-smart’ agriculture and wetland restoration in the Niger River basin, to mapping the water system in the Hague, the Netherlands.
