Chasing Water by Brian Richter
Water scarcity is spreading and intensifying in many regions of the world, with dire consequences for local communities, economies, and freshwater ecosystems. In this book, the author tells a cohesive and complete story of water scarcity: where it is happening, what is causing it, and how it can be addressed.
