商品描述
Water is intricately linked with food security, energy security, and sustainable development. As the world is moving towards sustainable development goals, it is critical to recognize the role of water in attaining these goals. The Water-Energy-Food Nexus draws attention to the complex and interrelated nature of global resource systems and forces us to think about how a decision in one sector impacts other interlinked sectors as well. This book looks at the three dimensions of sustainable development-environment, economics and society-and how water is linked with them and explores the nexus approach as a framework to look at the issues and identify solutions.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
水與糧食安全、能源安全及可持續發展密切相關。隨著世界朝向可持續發展目標邁進，認識水在實現這些目標中的角色至關重要。水-能源-糧食聯結（Water-Energy-Food Nexus）引起了人們對全球資源系統複雜且相互關聯的本質的關注，並迫使我們思考一個領域的決策如何影響其他相互聯繫的領域。本書探討了可持續發展的三個維度——環境、經濟和社會，以及水與這些維度的聯繫，並探索聯結方法作為一種框架來看待問題並識別解決方案。
