520 $aWater is a basic necessity of life, yet 1.2 billion people currently live without a safe water supply7, the amount of available drinking water is shrinking and the need for it increasing relentlessly. Caldecott explains the history, science, economics and politics behind the looming water crisis, and the tragedies - both small and large - that are its result. He reveals where the water we use comes from, at what cost, and how we can all make a difference to the way water is used and abused on our planet.
