Coffee Break – Let’s bust some water Myths together! Water Crisis: Myth or Reality?
Is the world truly facing a water crisis, or are we being misled by misinformation and outdated assumptions? Join us for a special edition of the Permanent Forum of Binational Waters titled “Water Crisis: Myth or Reality?”—an engaging session dedicated to challenging common narratives and uncovering the facts.
This online event, happening on May 4, 2023, from 4:00 to 5:30 p.m. (CT), will bring together leading experts, scientists, and water professionals from both sides of the U.S.-Mexico border. Moderated by Samuel Sandoval Solis, Associate Professor at UC Davis, and Rosario Sanchez, Senior Research Scientist at TWRI, the conversation will dive deep into controversial claims, revealing which are supported by data and which fall into the category of myth.
“Water crisis myth or reality” is more than just a question—it’s an urgent call for informed dialogue. From vegetation management to groundwater depletion and transboundary river flows, the forum will explore the science and policy implications behind what many believe to be a growing global emergency.
Whether you’re a student, policymaker, community leader, or simply a concerned citizen, this event will help you better understand where the real challenges lie—and where we might be misdirecting resources.
The event is free and accessible via Zoom
