Restoring the Water Commons

 

 

Water is fundamental to life. It is a resource that is commonly shared. While some benefit from its use, all share in the costs of its abuse. This makes water a classic case of the "Tragedy of the Commons."

A new paradigm for the 21st century water management is emerging just in time. This new paradigm builds upon our understanding of the linkages between things, rebuilds feedback loops between cause and effect, and reshapes our relationship to water, the source of life on earth.
