Overview

Water is the life source of all living things on our planet. By honoring our environment and realizing the importance of our great resources, we not only restore our natural world, but we also create a sustainable planet and quality of life we so desperately need. Many do not have access to pure, clean water. In addition, natural disasters temporarily alter water systems and make them undrinkable, and as we look for healthy, on-the-go alternatives, many have turned to bottled water. This is one of the many issues involving water science and environmental sustainability. Leadership Approaches to the Science of Water and Sustainability highlights the many issues with water and sustainability. It details the lengths one goes to find, develop, and protect natural resources and highlights the scientists, state, and government agencies who work tirelessly to protect our great natural resources. Covering topics such as environmental law, the history of water, and water science, this premier reference source is a dynamic resource for government officials, conservationists, environmental engineers, agricultural scientists, environmental scientists, non-profit organizations, students and faculty of higher education, researchers, and academicians.
