This stark warning has been issued by Piers Clark, chairman of technology consultancy Isle, following the publication of the IPCC report which found the global water crisis will continue to intensify with climate breakdown.

Whether to sweat, repair or replace water mains is a dilemma facing most water businesses, who have to strike a balance between maintaining an ageing asset base, often with a limited maintenance budget, and increasing customer expectations.
Eleven winners of the Innovation in Water Challenge (IWC) will receive up to £250,000 each for initiatives such as converting waste into green energy and using artificial intelligence and CCTV to spot leaks.
Run by Ofwat and Nesta Challenges, and supported by Arup and Isle Utilities, the IWC’s goal is to fund transformational innovation to key challenges in the water sector.
This was the first in a series of competitions funded through Ofwat’s Innovation Fund that aims to create new collaborations in the water sector so it can meet the needs of customers, society and the environment now and in the future.

The lack of diversity and inclusion in the water sector, along with the latest research on Covid-19, features in updates presented to the Water Action Platform community in October’s webinar.

Assessing risk and determining responses to Covid-19 were major themes of the most recent Water Action Platform webinar which took place on 9 July. Here are six key learnings from the interactive event which was hosted by Isle chairman Piers Clark.
While conventional business practices encourage neutrality and keeping politics/personal beliefs at a minimum, the continued acts of injustice towards Black people require a clear position on this significant issue.
