Water, the Environment and the Sustainable Development Goals details the availability of water resources on Earth in the context of sustainable resource management, how these water resources are utilized and the latest sustainable techniques in water resource management. Along with the latest techniques, each chapter discusses future challenges and opportunities in sustainability and provides detailed case studies.  Sections cover water quality, water pollution, water borne diseases, water purification, transboundary waters, water and energy, water and the green economy, water cooperation, water scarcity, and the relationship between water environments and sustainable development goals.
