Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change: Technical Paper on Climate Change and Water

Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Technical Paper VI- Climate Change and Water

  • “The importance of freshwater to our life support system is widely recognised, as can be seen clearly in the international context. Freshwater is indispensable for all forms of life and is needed, in large quantities, in almost all human activities. Climate, freshwater, biophysical and socio-economic systems are interconnected in complex ways, so a change in any one of these induces a change in another. Anthropogenic climate change adds a major pressure to nations that are already confronting the issue of sustainable freshwater use. The challenges related to freshwater are: having too much water, having too little water, and having too much pollution. Each of these problems may be exacerbated by climate change. Freshwater-related issues play a pivotal role among the key regional and sectoral vulnerabilities. Therefore, the relationship between climate change and freshwater resources is of primary concern and interest.”
