Melbourne is in the twelfth year of an extended dry sequence resulting in a loss of 30% of available water resources. Is this the result of climate change and what should we do about it? Are we now in a situation of being forced to make decisions in a crisis, which raises the question; are we making the right ones?
Leading water expert and Director of Uniwater, Professor John Langford, will address these questions in the third of the University of Melbourne’s Issues Forums.
The forum is open to staff and students at the University.
