Water-related violence (conflict over resources, destruction of infrastructure, etc.) surged to an all-time high in 2022. 2023 is on track to be worse. The global water industry should take a stand against actions that deprive people of access to water.

Over the last week I've seen a LOT of footage of flooding around the world. I thought I'd put them here in one place 🧵 #floods #ClimateEmergency #degrowth 1. Greece (1/13) https://t.co/8KIqammOjj
Catastrophic floods have absolutely devastated Central Greece. Zagora, Greece received 30 inches of rain in one day. That’s more rain than London typically sees in a year. 🎥 @RomainChvt
