Overview

Well hello there people and welcome to Water Change blog!

I don’t want to say that I am uncomfortable writing a blog, but I am not comfortable either, which technically makes it uncomfortable. But anyway I did actually like the idea of taking this different approach of setting up a blog.

The aim of this blog, in case you haven’t broken the code behind the name already, is to investigate Climate Change and the challenges of water management. Climate Change, water, Water Change! See what I did there?

Environmental systems in general are interlinked and often have domino effect on each other. For instance, climate change brings about more frequent and intense extreme weathers, which causes more droughts in some parts of the world and more flooding in some other parts, this will have an impact on agricultural activities and crop yields hence effecting food security and causing health concerns, and it gets even more interesting when politics and economy come in to the picture. And this trend goes on and on to the point where you would probably give up and decide to catch up with your favorite TV series instead of finding the connections .

This topic is no different and has various factors and aspects incorporated in it. Furthermore, water being essential for life, makes the whole situation even more sensitive with potentials to cause international conflicts.

Here I plan to look into some of those factors and better understand this complex matrix . 

And to officially end the first post I'm gonna leave you with this short CLIP about the blog. Enjoy and stay tuned!

 (I was just thinking how confusing it would be to use my initials at the END of my post which read “hi”, hilarious!)
