Course summary
Water is arguably the most important physical
resource as it is the one that is essential to
human survival. Understanding the global water
cycle and how we use water is essential to
planning a sustainable source of water for the
future. In the UK there are areas where water
supplies are limited, shown by recent droughts.
Globally, there are many areas that do not have
enough water to support the current population
adequately. Decisions will have to be made on
the best way to use water in a world where there
is climate change. This free course, Global water
resources, examines the options.
