water should be managed in a trans boundary or watershed or ecological boundary. So in that case, I can see the relation with the IWRM and water diplomacy because when I say that water should be managed in a watershed or trans boundary scale, that means it definitely crosses boundary of ecological boundary with the pol... |
development and the environment. So here you can compare the thinking of the water diplomacy. So it's completely opposite of the thinking of the Dublin principle where outer diplomacy framework considered water is the flexible resource instead of finite and vulnerable resource. So how the conflicting situation can be, ... |
based on this principles, IWRM has been, as you can see, from the Global Order Partnership definition, that IWRM is considered as a process which promotes the coordinated development and management of water, land and related resources. In order to maximize the resultant economic and social welfare in an equitable manne... |
our dimension is integrated management. And the second dimension is the river basin or watershed should be the special scale for managing water resources. And water governance or institutional mechanism for governing water is very important and involving stakeholders and public participations is also one of the key dim... |
I start with the problems in practice. And maybe that's why I'm less tolerant of some of the fuzziness and some of the ambiguity in IWRM the way it's been written about and the way it emerged. I mean calling water and economic good leads to the notion that you should get the prices right if you want to protect the envi... |
it can't maintain the system. So it sells the debt to private moneylenders who then come after the person on our daily basis and saying, not only do you owe us the $900 from the last four months, now the interest rate and we've just increased it to 10% interest. They can't pay the debt, they can't pay the interest. And... |
we never had in the United States a system of water fees based on ability to pay until last year when Philadelphia passed the first municipal law saying that they wanted to move in a different direction and have people pay for some portion of their water relative to their ability to pay. And you can imagine the legal b... |
the problem is we have underinvestment in the capital improvements necessary to get water to people that need it. And there's not a way to solve that through integrated water resource management. That's a political, ethical, moral decision. So a lot of the conflicts, some of which don't rise to the level of a formal co... |
it's an additional burden to his daily income. What if the state would have provided him a water supply network with a certain pricing and the state had ensured that that water was clean enough to drink like for example I in Pakistan can't drink water directly from tap I'm not sure about drinking water directly from th... |
drinkable water that won't kill you, to be a common cost. If it's a common cost, then we should collect taxes from everybody in a progressive way and take care of building the things that are common like clean water system. So I know, I heard the comparison you're making, but I would argue both in Pakistan and in the U... |
it's like a joint responsibility, not the responsibility of government only. I agree. I agree. You'll have to excuse me. I'm trying desperately to get the folks planning Glasgow to approach the problem in a different way than they did in Paris. And they have chosen this hour, at least I have a chance to talk to them. I... |
can you just tell me the question you are you're going to address in this meeting? Yes. What should be done before the meeting by the people who will be coming to the meeting while they can still formulate new policy choices? Because once you're at the meeting, all you do is argue about the text that's been sent out, a... |
it doesn't matter. We do it online. We just need to start work on new proposals of a different kind. And the question that I'm saying that the proposal should be about, what help does your country need to get to net zero by 2030? Not what's your responsibility for cutting stuff. What help do you say you need to get to ... |
there is a tendency to waste. And in Bangladesh or in developing country, a huge number of people, they would be not that rich to afford it. So the government would be giving them a massive amount of water in total. And if everybody wastes just a little or the majority of the people waste just a little, that's a huge a... |
water energy, climate ecosystem. So it depends on the context, but the thinking of the nexus is it comes from system integration. So how the global systems are interconnected and how the traditional silo process is diminishing the importance of system level outcome. And that's why the nexus concept can. So for example,... |
but also in the transboundary water resources management aspect. So the nexus concept builds on many of this approaches and it also incorporates this integrated process. I already shared this article. Probably you have read this article and it's interesting because it clearly identifies the synergies and trade-offs of ... |
because in Spain, it considers not the gravity irrigation, but energy driven drip irrigation systems. So if we convert the irrigation system in Egypt, then the water is saved, but at the same time, the energy and carbon dioxide production rate has increased significantly. So this kind of trade-up can be considered by c... |
but also it can affect eutrophication and salinization and affects water quality. But at the same time, if you see the relation between water and energy, for the energy production, of course, you need water. And energy production also affects water quality and quantity. For example, the hydropower production for energy... |
the impact of the importance of water on agricultural production between the upstream and downstream is very important. So that's how they found. So this kind of qualitative relationships for water resources management within the water energy food nexus has been established. So in terms of how the water energy food nex... |
the sustainable development goal has been considered in 2015 to meet the target by 2030. And in order to move from M disease to S disease, it considers 17 S disease and with 169 targets. And S disease 6 is the ensuring availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all. And it incorporates SDG 6.5 ... |
it's not specifically defined which kind of renewable energy can be produced. So that can promote the idea of hydroelectric electricity generation. So that can also affect implementation of IWRMs because if you promote upstream water development projects for hydroelectricity, then this can affect a relationship with th... |
but yeah you have interesting colleagues that are highly interested to the to understand the role play game you can let me know yeah so another notice our announcement is that next week, Larry and me are going to talk on transbound water resources management. Larry will discuss mainly the theoretical aspect and I will ... |
but it should be written in a scientific way. Yeah. So I will share those two links and also I will share the role play simulation with the general instruction, but also confidential instruction for his player. I will share with you in next few days. So, bye. |
