The increasing occurrence of floods, droughts and water pollution incidents are reminders of our vulnerability in relation to water. Estimates suggest that global water demand could outstrip supply by as much as 40 per cent by 2030 if we continue with the current "business as usual" approach to water management.Melvyn Kay and Olcay Unver use Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 6 as a framework to explore the concept of sustainable water resources management and how to improve water security.
