A New Vision for Water Management

Launching Defra's water white paper last month, Environment Secretary Caroline Spelman described the urgent need for a new approach to water management: "Making sure we've got enough water for everyone is going to be one of the major challenges this country will have to deal with in the years ahead." Business has a key role to play: we look at water footprinting, as well as wider issues around product footprinting and supply chains, and a call for more sustainable circular approaches to production. Other features consider feedback on sustainable development indicators, the ethics of sustainable health, the EU's energy roadmap, and a sustainable development bill for Wales.
