«Связь между водой, пищей и энергией имеет решающее значение для устойчивого развития. Спрос на все три возрастает, что обусловлено ростом населения планеты, быстрой урбанизацией, изменением рациона питания и экономическим ростом. Вода – это конечный ресурс, который должен экспоненциально обслуживать больше людей, и поэтому обеспечение того, чтобы каждый имел доступ к надежным источникам, имеет решающее значение для выживания человека и устойчивого прогресса»
