Water in a Changing Climate: The Water-Energy-Food Nexus

Climate change is often described in terms of rising temperatures. Yet its most profound impacts emerge through the alteration of the hydrological cycle. Changes in precipitation patterns, glacier retreat, and increasing variability in water availability are reshaping the stability of freshwater resources worldwide.

This event aims to provide a scientifically grounded overview of how climate change alters water system stability and how these changes propagate across food and energy systems. By adopting a nexus perspective, the discussion emphasizes the need for integrated approaches to resource management in a warming world.
