Population Growth: Climate Change and Networking Appeal

population growth: But most stay away, according to Global Times China. They are missing out. Throw in the networking appeal of almost 4,000 people in town for the annual World Water Week confab, including government officials and executives from big companies like Diageo, Apple and Nestl and it's hard to imagine Wall Street types not flooding the event. The world is facing a 40 percent shortfall in clean, fresh supplies by 2030, according to the United Nations, with India being one example of a country where a huge population and rapid development are on a collision course with scarce water resources. But climate change is making floods and droughts worse, and changing snow and rainfall patterns. Plenty of factors are behind that, including population growth. (news.financializer.com).
