Water and energy are two of the most basic needs of human civilization. Our use of each is reliant on and affects the availability of the other, and as populations grow, the demand on both resources will increase at accelerating rates. True water protection cannot be accomplished without concentrating on energy production and use. The GWPC Water/Energy Division will focus on issues where the human and environmental needs of water and energy meet. Please join us to help set priority areas for the Water/Energy Division.
