Steal for it, Shoot for it or Sign for it-the stark choices ahead for the world's shared waters. Around the globe, water disputes are burgeoning and climate change will make more countries fight over shared river systems. But Water Wars are a preventable and potentially curable global disease. Conservation International, IUCN, and WWF present Prof. Timothy Flannery and Ms. Flavia Rocha loures to give an entertaining and challenging scenario session.
