“A new push to protect water, our most valuable resource”, the UN entitles the speech of Inger Andersen, Under-Secretary-General of the United Nations and Executive Director of the United Nations Environment Programme UNEP, at the High-level opening of the Baku Dialogue on Water for Climate Action.
The triple planetary crisis of climate change, nature, biodiversity and land loss, and pollution and waste is disrupting the water cycle, polluting water and making this precious resource ever more scarce. (…) Earth is a blue planet. Water is our most valuable resource, more precious than all the gems and metals in the world. We must protect it.
