Water scarcity, supply, and quality are critical issues facing the United States and the world. Population growth, energy needs, and climate change put increasing demands on finite water resources for drinking water, agriculture, endangered species protection, and other uses. The panel will discuss water supply, quality, and use at the local, state, national, and international levels, defining the key issues and how they might best be addressed.
