Responsible use of resources like water requires a better understanding of the earth’s subsurface. Let's connect at COP28 so we can make a difference together.

The @WorldBankWater is so spot on here. We need financial investments to bridge this gap. Everyone should have the water they need, it allows them to focus on improving their economic situation. It is just good sense for investors to see how they can make us more resilient.
The world is expected to face a 40% shortfall between demand & supply of water by 2030, with 10% of the global population already living in areas of critical water stress.💧 We must protect this resource & #ScaleUpFinance4Water: https://t.co/sWF0mswNON

And we need even more of them. We must mine efficiently with as little a footprint as possible. Also transparently about how and what we do. Without these minerals there is no energy transition.
Record deployment of clean energy technologies like solar & EVs is driving unprecedented growth in the market for the minerals needed to produce them The critical minerals market has doubled in size over the past 5 years, reaching $320 billion in 2022 👉 https://t.co/YMY90st03a

#water reuse is so important. This is a great story. That the water ends up supporting agriculture in my mind is hugely important.
💧The Kality wastewater treatment plant in Addis Ababa is a model for sustainble development! With support from @WBG_IDA, the plant was upgraded & modernized, treats up to 100,000 cubic meters per day, & repurposes water for irrigation. https://t.co/ViOfaGws11

#Irrigation is imperative to our future, but we need to make sure that we have #groundwater there to irrigate with. We need make sure we don't waste a drop. Store #wastewater (treated of course) underground, capture excessive runoff.
With erratic rainfall patterns & prolonged droughts becoming the new norm, irrigation provides a reliable source of water when other sources fall short. A new blog details 3️⃣ reasons why irrigated agriculture is critical in a changing climate: https://t.co/DXvXGFAqdo

This is so on target, we need investment to ensure #SDG6 is fulfilled, especially given the additional stress from #ClimateChange
Climate and development are intertwined challenges. @WorldBank President Ajay Banga, IMF Managing Director @KGeorgieva, @LeilaRBenali & @MarkJCarney discuss the policies and investments that can help build a livable planet. Replay: https://t.co/lOpuhyjGDs

This is so true. I often think about the word: #wastewater. That is exactly what we are doing when we don’t put it to beneficial use to address #sdg6 and all the downstream benefits from that goal based on #water. So, don’t waste it, put it to use!
How can wastewater provide an opportunity? Most wastewater is not treated or reused. This is dangerous and a missed opportunity. Wastewater management can produce water, energy & nutrients, and create jobs. https://t.co/NyeDTZdBsz

Handwashing + soap = lives saved. Data shows we need to work 3x faster on hand hygiene to meet our targets by 2030. Clean hands are within reach this #GlobalHandwashingDay on Oct 15. Take action today. https://t.co/Nd3X7IOIVT

Accessing water and sanitation is a human right. 😔 Yet, 380 million women and girls live with high or critical water stress. This number is projected to go up to 674 million by 2050. Find out more in the 2023 Gender Snapshot report: https://t.co/S7HGGdJQqJ
