| Summary/Abstract |
Water is vital for life, but over one billion people across the world do not have access to clean, drinkable water. Demand for water is increasing, due to population growth and the needs of industrial, consumer societies, but it is a finite resource and the amount available is being reduced by pollution. 'Water' examines the many issues surrounding the use, supply and conservation of water today and in the future.
