WISE Public Lecture: Energy Economics - Towards Sustainable Development & a 'Green GDP'

On December 15th, WISE is pleased to host Sankaran Ramalingam, President, Energy and Fuel Users Association of India (ENFUSE) for a public lecture entitled, 'Energy Economics - Towards Sustainable Development & A Green GDP'. Current methods of calculating economic growth fail to account for environmental depletion, degradation and loss of biodiversity. In turn, industrial development and economic growth are reflective of the creation of material wealth but fail to cultivate environmental and social gains.

WaterTalks lecture series: Urban Water Supply Re-invention for Dry Cities

Richard Luthy, from Stanford University, California

Description

California is entering its sixth year of drought. It’s clear that the old ways of coping with drought — overdraft of groundwater, stream depletion, and greater imports — will no longer meet the needs of the 21st Century. The solution to our challenge of urban water security will likely consist of a combination of demand management and the development of a portfolio of new water supplies.
