from Civic · host Mel Baker, Laura Wenus, Liana Wilcox

With droughts expected to continue and worsen in coming years, water managers are exploring conservation approaches. Laura Feinstein, sustainability and resilience policy director at the urban think tank SPUR, explains the difficult choice between attempting to create separate drinking and nonpotable water systems, or developing robust wastewater recycling systems, and how more efficient water management has also led to improved energy efficiency and reduced greenhouse gas emissions.
