Guest Quotes

“ We need to always keep in mind that climate and water, they go hand in hand and so do their solutions.” - Beatrice

“ Climate mitigation can't succeed without water. So that's really one of the first things that you have to look at, and that's one of the first things that's really affected by climate change.” - Annika

“ Water is that big mechanism in a way that we both experience effects of climate change, but it is also the mechanism in which we can mitigate a lot of those risks” - Natalya 

“ I saw the social harm that comes from not managing water supplies. That is a constant driver for me that, you know, we don't let that happen again ever.” - Chris
