Last year's heat waves have reminded us how important water is for us all to survive. It has even been declared a human right at the United Nations General Assembly in 2010. Unfortunately, our water resources have not been treated well, and the fast-growing population, over-exploitation of natural resources, and water pollution have reduced the amount of available pure and unpolluted water, and increased water scarcity. To make sure this scarcity is addressed and this human right can be met, one of the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals addresses this: clean water and sanitation. One of the ways water-use can be made more efficient is reusing water. In this article, I explain why wastewater is a valuable resource and how it can be put to good use: https://medium.com/the-environment/3-reasons-why-wastewater-is-a-valuable-resource-and-shouldnt-be-wasted-9f57de2a1fc8

The climate crisis is causing freshwater scarcity in certain areas. Last year, this was obvious in for example southern Europe. Apart from reducing water usage, desalination of saltwater using renewable energy sources such as wind, solar, or wave energy can be used to create drinking water and save lives. This can be done in many different ways. This article explains how water can be desalinated for drinking purposes using mechanical, thermal, electrical, or chemical energy: https://medium.com/climate-conscious/14-technologies-that-can-prevent-wars-over-drinking-water-85ebca54d850

When washing your hands, you have to initially turn the tap on to wet them before lathering with soap. But how much water is wasted while we lather with the tap running? In public restrooms especially, people often don’t—or, in the case of automatic taps, can’t—turn the tap back off while they lather. What if the soap dispenser itself first dispensed a small amount of water to wet your hands before dispensing the soap? Then you’d only have to turn the tap on at the end to rinse.

Turkana County in Kenya is a vast –wracked region characterized by dry sandy ground, tiny thorny bushes and occasional acacia trees. Dust swirls can be spotted cutting across open ground from miles away. Termite nests usually thinner and taller than normal pointing to the clear skies. Not a single permanent river in the area. Assumptions of availability of underground water along seasonal river beds are key reason for shallow boreholes across the region. The dry and barren area is one of the most arid regions on the planet with high temperatures sucking every bit of moisture. Locals are mainly Turkana people, a nomadic pastoralist tribe always on the move with camels and goats in pursuit for water and pasture their entire lives. They are always facing both physical and economic water scarcity interchangeably during and between seasons. In September 2013, a life-changing discovery that was indeed seen as a beacon of hope was given to the locals only to be dashed shortly after. Below the desolate arid county flows and aquifer as large as 4,164km2 which is 9 times bigger than any other underground aquifer in Kenya. Lotikipi Basin Aquifer was believed to have a potential to serve over 41 million Kenyans for the next 70 years or indefinitely if properly managed. Assurances were made by the government and various institutions terming the discovery as a beginning of a new era and a possible solution to the regions humanitarian and social economic problems. According to a report released by World Food Programme, 1 in 4 people in Turkana require food aid due to cyclical drought, flooding and conflict. Malnutrition rates are above the emergency level of 15 percent. Then what happened? The geology team that found the aquifer warned against bursting of boreholes until comprehensive studies on the sustainability of the water were conducted. They needed to determine the aquifers replenishment rate as well as how safe the water was for humans, livestock and agriculture. The people’s hearts sank as they resumed walking between 20-40 kilometers a day to get water. Unlucky blessing! The region is the least developed county with about 80% of its population not having access to 50 litres of water a day- the amount ensuring that most basic needs are fulfilled according to a UN report. A test drive was carried out in Lotikipi by drilling 350 meters underground and on February 2015 a report on the aquifer was released. What had been presumed all along was finally confirmed; the numbers were not looking good. World Health Organization recommends that PH levels of drinking waters be maintained between 6.5 and 8.5. Well, in this case the levels were 7 times higher. The water was declared unfit for human consumption! Trying to keep the people hopes alive; the government promised to carry out more tests. And once again promises were made. To objectify the area’s supply of reliable and sufficient quality and quantity water which would in return translate as a fundamental building block for the region’s economic and social development, the water needed to be desalinated using reverse osmosis. Due to the complex and delicate nature of the process, Kenyans authorities settled on bringing on board a Saudi investor who was at the time had signed a deal worth $160m to construct another desalination plant in Mombasa. According to Tito Ochieng, the director of water services in Turkana a similar plant would be built on top of the Lotikipi aquifer, on Nanam village and was estimated at a cost of 5-10 billion Kenyan shilling. The locals and generations that came before have done the least to contribute to the carbon print being entirely into pastoralism. While climate change is global, the poor are disproportionately vulnerable to its effects. However, stable water supply from the 250 billion cubic meters of water discovered underneath the barren Turkana could see hunger crisis that have kept the county of the map for decades take a new turn. Water and weather, the subtle balance between evaporation and precipitation, is the primary cycle through which climate change is felt. Therefore, as an organization that seeks to create a world where the value of water is recognized, allocated sustainably, equitably and efficiently to meet everyone’s basic needs, I believe SIWI could join the conversation and speed up plans to turn the discovery into a reality. At the moment Turkana people remain at the mercy of an already heating planet!

Thank you for sharing this climate idea with us. We shared your idea with our groundwater expert, and must emphasise that we are not a technical consultancy company so there are others much better placed to advise on if and how to proceed with your idea. One consideration is that if the pH level is too high, the local groundwater cannot be treated i.e. made fit for consumptions using reverse osmosis - an established method in places like India. But even if the groundwater is not potable it could still be used for other purposes than drinking. The Turkana people, as many others, are suffering the consequences of climate change. At the upcoming COP26 climate conference we will be championing water smart solutions to the climate crisis, to reduce the impact on communities such as the Turkana people. Next year's UN Water theme is Groundwater so ideas like this may have the chance to access the financial and technical support they need to succeed.

A word of caution is needed here. This groundwater will be fossil, dating from the African Humid Period, 15,000 to 5,000 years ago, when the whole region was much wetter, with greatly expanded lakes, due to a different orbital configuration of the Earth, or from earlier similar periods. So it will eventually run out unless it is very well managed. Creation of a desalination plant will also require a strategy to utilize, or dispose of, the resulting salt. Coastal desalination plants often dump dense saline brine into the ocean, which may have unforseen effects on marine ecosystems and possibly, ocean circulation. Northern Kenya is not without rain, but it is highly seasonal and very erratic. Great progress has been made in areas with similar climates in Northwest India and West Africa, by building bunds to capture surface runoff from the rainstorms that do occur, and directing it into small community ponds and permaculture plots where trees and other suitable crops can be planted, rather than flowing away uselessly down ephemeral river systems: https://youtu.be/jDMnbeW3F8A

I agree...This is a very delicate project that could either go so well or so bad with the slightest miscalculation...That's why we are calling on experts with a track record to engage in these conversation. Only then, can we have solid conclusions on the way foward rather than lots of hope to the people based on assumptions....

True,what we save,saves us!
How do we avert a global water crisis? Here are 5 ways to get started! 💙 Value water 🤝 Share water 🚜 Transform agriculture 🌱 Restore ecosystems 🏗️ Build resilience In 2050, Earth could be home to 10 billion people, but we will not have more freshwater than today. To avert a global crisis, we must immediately change how we use and manage water. Here are five ways to get started. Already today, close to 4 billion people lack sufficient water at least one month per year and the situation is rapidly deteriorating. The combination of climate change, growing demand and a rising global population is putting increasing pressure on the world’s freshwater. Human activities have broken the water cycle – the system that produces and recycles water – and mending it must now be a top priority. 💙 Value water The situation will only improve when we begin to understand the true value of water. All life requires water, it is a finite resource, and it has no substitute. Given these three characteristics it seems absurd that water has often not been attributed any value at all, though this is luckily starting to change.When societies place a higher value on water, we can expect improved efficiency and reuse instead of waste and pollution. Both the public and the private sector will want to invest in crumbling water infrastructure to limit waste and prepare for future weather extremes. It makes sense to apply more nature-based solutions to clean water and recharge supply. As we start to understand the true cost of pollution, we can expect improved wastewater treatment and more recycling. All sectors of society must learn to manage water in a way that strengthens the water cycle. 🤝 Share water Competition over water is likely to increase and good water governance will be critical. Though having access to clean water and safe sanitation is a human right, the fact the remains that one person in four still does not have access to clean water at home. Similarly, around half the global populations lacks safely managed toilets, which is a major driver of disease and deaths, especially among children. At a time of growing climate threats, lack of water and sanitation exacerbates the vulnerability of the world’s poorest. Sharing water is an efficient way to increase justice and resilience. This is equally true for relationships between countries who share a river, lake, or groundwater aquifer. By managing it together, they are much better prepared for the increasingly erratic rainfall patterns and the growing number of droughts and floods that must be expected as the global temperature rises. 🚜 Transform agriculture All over the world, agriculture must undergo massive transformations, for several reasons. First, to avoid mass hunger since climate change and degraded lands are making farming much more difficult in many parts of the world. Second, to make freshwater available for alternative uses – currently food production accounts for 70 per cent of freshwater withdrawals. A third reason is because agriculture is a main driver of water pollution and global warming.We need more research and innovation to improve the sustainability, climate resilience and water efficiency of agriculture. But many alternative methods already exist that recharge water, restore soil health and improve food security. Often a combination of traditional knowledge and new inventions give the best results. Changing food habits and reducing waste are other key factors in the overhaul of the global food system that has started and now needs to rapidly pick up speed 🌱 Restore ecosystems The Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES) warns of an era of mass extinction of species that could threaten also human existence. We depend on healthy ecosystems for food, water, and livelihoods. But by protecting and restoring ecosystems we can limit climate change, stop the loss of biodiversity, and improve water security.Since all living organisms depend on water, we must pay more attention to the role of water in ecosystems. And this is starting to happen. A growing number of governments and companies understand their responsibility to protect and restore forests, rivers, wetlands, and oceans. This is in turn should mean that we stop over-abstracting and polluting the world’s groundwater, which poses an enormous risk to global food and water security. 🏗️ Build resilience More and more signs are indicating that Earth’s life-support systems are seriously weakened – across the world people experience droughts, heat waves, floods, and rainstorms at an unprecedented scale. Such extremes are expected to only become more frequent and more severe, making it necessary for all sectors of society to redesign for resilience.Luckily there are already many good examples from across the world of how this can be done. Cities are integrating trees, wetlands, and farmland to recharge and clean water, boost carbon storage, and reduce the risk of flooding. Farmers shift to agroforestry and methods that improve soil health. Communities protect their local watersheds and manage forests in a way that improves groundwater recharge.What all these solutions have in common is that they help us tackle several of the world’s greatest challenges simultaneously. By innovating and working with nature, we can improve the lives of the poorest, restore the water cycle, mitigate climate change, and improve biodiversity. So, what are we waiting for?

Summary Rain Guardian is a rehydration methodology of the biosphere that was born out ot the need to combat the imminent dehydration of the vegetation cover of soils and the increase of forest fires in the northern and southern hemisphere of the planet. RG is a technique for capturing the relative humidity of the atmosphere by means of Atmospheric Water Generators AWG for the generation and dispertion of water for the hydration of the vegetation cover of ecosystems mitigating droughts and forest fires, protecting the biosphere of the planet for the reduction of water scarcity in the world. APPROACH From an axiomatic approach the biological and physical effects of Rain Guardian method generate benefits as vegetation cover recovery, ecosystems protection,microclimates generation, temperature decrease, reduce high moisture levels on Atmosphere, reduce high sea levels, regeneration of groundwater reserves, rivers and lakes. It is possible optimize water irrigation over large areas by increasing yields by capturing moisture from evaporating water in rehydrating soils for regeneration. The highest concentration of moisture in the atmosphere is found along the coasts, with a physical-mechanical process this moisture can be transported to inland areas of the coasts for the regeneration of vegetation cover and groundwater regeneration. Objective This resilience method aims to protect the life of all living beings on the planet and its ecosystems as well as to cover the basic needs of humanity. daily hydrating the vegetation and the soil with atmospheric condensation technologies to mitigate the environmental and food crisis that humanity is facing. The moment to sharing technical, scientific and creative knowledge in Agricultural Engineering, Traditional Agriculture, Environmental Engineering, Biology, Science and Technology is now to recover plant communities on the Planet, improve soil water retention underground, reduce deforestation and flooding rates to be able to mitigate the climate change effects on time. This hydration metodology have the following objectives: *Communities and Wildlife protection, contribute to reforestation plans to biosphere recovery, hydrate ecosystems, bushfires prevention. *Foster collaborative knowledge and interdisciplinary actions to improve techniques and technologies as swiftly as possible to mitigate the climate change effects *Promote peace and prosperity by the means of water resource, help to achieve food sufficiency balances for the humankind Anyone interested in join this project?

By taking better care of our forests and watersheds we could reach the targets of the Paris Agreement faster – so what is stopping us? More and more hopes are pinned to nature-based solutions to tackle both the climate crisis and the rapid degradation of nature. Research indicates that this type of solutions could contribute one-third of the climate mitigation needed to keep global warming below 2 degrees Celsius. Nature should therefore play a key role in climate discussions, such as the Leaders’ Summit on Climate on 22-23 April, and the COP26 UN climate summit in November. But to what extent are nature-based solutions really being rolled out and how successful are they? That was discussed at the event Are Forests Crucial to Reaching our Climate Targets?, organized on 19 April by the Forest-Water Champions Network and moderated by Ingrid Timboe from AGWA. The Forest-Water Champions Network is an expert network founded by SIWI together with the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN).

Looming water and climate threats… Food production falls by 30 per cent | Without adaptation, climate change may depress global agriculture yields by up to 30 per cent by 2050. Africa will be hit particularly hard since the continent is expected to get much drier while its population could almost double. The UN has recently warned that southern Africa is already in the throes of a climate emergency, with rapidly growing hunger. Sea-level rise threatens the world’s largest cities | By 2050, many of the world’s most populous cities will be below sea level. New research shows that this may impact three times as many people as previously believed. Megacities such as Mumbai (estimated to be the world’s largest city in 2050), Shanghai, Dhaka, Lagos, Tokyo and New York are all at risk. Weather extremes can become yearly events | Among the many shocking revelations in the 2019 IPCC Special Report on the Ocean and the Cryosphere in a Changing Climate was the warning that disasters previously hitting mankind once in a century could have become a yearly occurrence by 2050. The report also noted that by 2050, one billion people are expected to live in low-lying coastal zones. … that can be solved! Food production gets smart | Major investments in agriculture can help the world avoid a hunger crisis. By 2050, smallholder farmers in southern Africa could be more food secure through for example rainwater harvesting, agroforestry and small-scale irrigation. New technologies and more research can help us develop robust crops and water-efficient solutions. Resilient cities rise above water levels | If we keep the global temperature increase below 1.5 degrees, we can limit the damage from rising sea-levels – but a new approach to city planning is also needed. By 2050, all cities should be built to be resilient and make use of existing landscapes. Coral reefs, mangroves and wetlands can protect us from rising water levels. Extreme weather has reduced impact | By 2050, more people could survive disasters if we focus on boosting societies’ resilience. This includes better buildings, new early-warning systems and smarter planning. Protect wetlands and let them buffer against floods and recharge groundwater, even during dry spells. Invest in wastewater treatment and safe sanitation so that people can cope with a growing number of diseases. Learn more about Water & Climate here

I hope that the world leaders and people will soon open their eyes and start taking significant climate action.
The climate crisis is a water crisis. It is only when we realize this that we can come up with solutions that are effective enough to make a real difference. The word “water” may not be what immediately springs to mind when you think about climate change – but it should be. The most dramatic effect of climate change is how it impacts the water cycle. This will play out in many different ways, all of them potentially dangerous: WEIRDER WEATHER AND STRANGER SEASONS | Around the world, seasons and precipitation patterns (rain and snow) are getting more and more unpredictable, putting ecosystems under pressure and making it increasingly difficult for people to access food and water. One example is how the monsoon system is becoming more erratic, which impacts food and water security for a quarter of the global population. A SHARP INCREASE IN DISASTERS | Most extreme weather events are water-related, whether it’s floods, droughts or hurricanes. Changes to the water cycle could make such disasters both more frequent and more severe. Poor and vulnerable groups will suffer the most, wiping out decades of progress in reducing poverty. DANGEROUSLY RISING SEA LEVELS | The rapid melting of snow and ice, including retreating glaciers, is causing an alarming rise in sea levels. Many of the world’s most populous cities, such as Mumbai, Shanghai and New York, could eventually be underwater. New research indicates that the effect will be far more drastic than previously believed. PARTS OF THE EARTH COULD BECOME UNINHABITABLE | A combination of higher temperatures and an altered water cycle will put ecosystems and societies in many parts of the world under extreme stress. A GROWING RISK OF TIPPING POINTS | We have already surpassed several of the ecological thresholds mapped by science. Scientists fear tipping points, which is where processes spiral out of control – for example, thawing permafrost could release greenhouse gases to an extent that amplifies global warming. The common thread betweenthese diverse threats is that they are all linked to impacts on the water cycle. These threats can only be managed if the delicate balance of the water cycle is restored. The climate crisis is a water crisis and must be treated as such. Read more about Water & Climate
