Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

South African Lighthouse of Hope from Nature-Based Wastewater Treatment
Q: How do you see this? Do you think that the water hub could be a template then?
Yes, we see living labs becoming environments that begin to show how what we're doing can be transferred elsewhere.
Water Bankruptcy
Q: But what can we do about the situation?
It's important we recognize that this is not a crisis but rather a state of water bankruptcy requiring both mitigation and adaptation efforts.
Water Bankruptcy
Q: So Kaveh, we chatted recently about various water issues, and a lot of people talk about us, a global running out of water.
Many regions are experiencing severe water management issues, including floods and droughts, which is indicative of a failing system rather than a temporary crisis.
Water Markets and their Transformational Potential in Texas
Q: How did the Rio Grande water market evolve?
It evolved from the severe drought in the 1950s which led to litigation and the implementation of a new correlative rights system, allowing more flexible water use and management.
Water Markets and their Transformational Potential in Texas
Q: What motivated you to write the report?
A few years ago, I started discussing potential ways to change water management in Texas with a colleague, ultimately leading to the exploration of water markets as a solution to emerging water needs.
