This year, the theme of World Water Day 2024 is ‘Water for Peace’. As climate change impacts increase, and populations grow, there is an urgent need, within and between countries, to unite around protecting and conserving our most precious resource. When water is scarce or polluted, or when people have unequal, or no access, tensions can rise between people, communities and countries. So, water can create peace or spark conflict.
To conmemorate World Water Day, the coordinator of the BioGroup, Prof. Gumersindo Feijoo, has shared three scientific articles related to water written by him:
- How to accomplish the Goal 6: Clean Water and sanitation?
- Simple environmental purposes to be more sustainable
- How to achieve self-sufficient homes like the International Space Station
The three articles have been published both in The Conversation and GCiencia Journal
