40% within 20 years due to the combined threat of climate
change and population growth, scientists have warned. About 300
scientists, policymakers, and economists are attending the
Connecting
Water Resources 2011 conference in Ottawa 28
February3 March; it is hosted by the Canadian Water
Network. The event is a precursor for

“What people don't often realise is how much water there
is in everything we make and buy, from T-shirts to wine,”
said Nicholas Parker, chairman of Cleantech Group, an
international environmental technology consulting company. A
variety of water conservation measures are being
proposed.
