Brock N Meeks Ideas Lab
March 18, 2014
The crucial water-energy nexus teeters on the precipice of global concern, where it has for too long been ignored or marginalized for the sake of short-term goals or shortsighted political agendas, according to experts across a wide array of disciplines, industry and non-governmental organizations.
