World Water Week: Farming First
New Post has been published on http://www.growingcitiesmovie.com/blog/?p=1801
World Water Week: Farming First
  This post is from Farming First, about water use across the world and its tie to agriculture.
This week, from 1 – 6 September, world leaders, NGOs and businesses will gather in Stockholm to discuss the future of water security at World Water Week.
Taking place during the UN’s International year of Water Cooperation the week will focus on ‘Cooperation for a Water Wise World’, which will include discussions on international cooperation, sanitation and community ownership of water.
Issues relating to water scarcity have been moving up the development agenda in recent years as more pressure has been placed on this resource than ever before. World Water Week will occur just under a month after World ‘Overshoot Day’, a day that marks the moment when the world has officially consumed more natural resources than the biosphere can replace this year. ‘Overshoot Day’ has been reached two days earlier than last year, demonstrating the increasing pressure on the world’s resources.

As the world works to achieve sustainable development, cooperation between sectors is essential to address the unprecedented pressures on natural resources.
Members of the Farming First coalition believe that:
Water is a precious resource so improving its use is essential.
Adopting proven sustainable agricultural practices reduces water use per bushel.
Research, innovation, and access to improved technologies, seeds, and improved irrigation techniques are essential to increasing the efficiency of water use.
Agriculture needs to be part of watershed management.
