A panel discussion featuring strategy and policy experts to examine how environmental policymakers are responding to challenges in water resource management caused by severe weather events associated with climate change.
Experts Alice Piure and Jon Stern assess whether trade in private water allocation affirms private interests or can embed wider public interest 'stewardship' concerns. Climate change, through more severe weather events, including both droughts and floods, is making water resource management ever more difficult. This panel discussion assesses whether and how farmers' rights to access and use water in England are changing in the light of the transformed environmental policy context.
