PLAYBOOK<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n

SOURCING MATTERS<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Water is a fundamental part of all aspects of life. Yet, today, 40% of the world\u2019s people are affected by water scarcity; 80% of wastewater is discharged untreated into the environment, and more than 90% of disasters are water-related. And despite all of these real concerns – we still suck down 70% of available freshwater to lavishly manage antiquated cropping systems chock full of chemical externalities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

–<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The long and short of it \u2013 we need awareness of the problems and more solutions for the vast water crises enveloping the planet. So, to find out what should be done to manage water better in the future \u2013 we\u2019ve turned to the guy that the United Nations has asked to quarterback their once in a generation Water Conference happening in March of 2023. We welcome Henk Ovink to show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How we all decide to consume will play a major role in eradicating pressing water concerns. Spurring on more awareness and incentivizing change in stakeholder behavior is ultimately what\u2019s needed to evolve our relationship with nature. Food seems a logical place to begin taking action, and from my POV it\u2019s all about good storytelling that’ll be the remedy here. Tune-in to hear what this Force of Nature has to say about the future of water and our shared future.   – Aaron <\/p>\n\n\n\n
