Water (ENGLISH)

Water is in the news. Suddenly Pakistan has started taking water seriously. Perhaps the CJP triggered it.

It is great that we are taking the issue seriously. Water is indeed a lifeline issue and should be taken seriously. All experts have been agreed for a while that we are headed towards a water crisis. Yet the government and civil society has mostly been in oblivion till the CJP spoke. 

Here we speak to Rafay Alam, an environmental lawyer who has been researching water for the last few years. He has talked to us on urban issues before. 

This episode offers a wealth of information on water.  If you really want a quick update and deep education on water issues in Pakistan, listen to this. 

Rafay also gives us a reading list on the subject.

Listen to this and let us reinvigorate research and debate into change. 

Listen to this fascinating discussion. There is much to learn and research here.
