Why Climate Change is About Water

All over the planet the impacts of extreme weather events related to climate change are being seen and felt with increasing ferocity and increasingly serious consequences for human society. As the climate changes it is altering some fundamental systems and relationships on planet earth. One of those systems is the presence, availability and distribution of water.

This most precious of natural resources has been the key to how we have organised human civilization for millennia. From the types of food we cultivate to where we decide to build our homes, constant and reliable water supplies have shaped the most basic realities of how people live. That constancy and dependability now seems to be in question. Bolivia offers a window onto the lives of those severely impacted by climate change, where every year thousands of people are struggling to adapt to these new conditions of life.
