Biennial Report on Freshwater Resources
Edited
by Peter Gleick
320 pages, softcover $35.
Island Press, 2004.
The fourth installment of this annual
report covers water issues that span the globe. Gleick —
president of the Pacific Institute for Studies in Development,
Environment, and Security — and other water brainiacs
contemplate climate change and water in California, urban water
conservation, and Third World groundwater development, which offers
farmers a path beyond subsistence, but poses huge management and
sustainability challenges.
