Access to drinking water is vital for climate change resilience. The climate crisis is often discussed in terms of carbon emissions, but the effects of climate change are felt most acutely in the area of water.

Water is becoming a strategic and symbolic issue, as studies warn of future freshwater scarcity in France. Its access, quality, environmental impact, and climate footprint demand urgent attention. Rethinking usage and adopting sustainable approaches are essential to preserve this vital resource.

Today, we have to deal with crucial climate issues while also addressing the problems of tomorrow.
