Author and award-winning professor Dr. Michael E. Webber, gives an entertaining and fast-paced lecture on the nexus of energy and water, sharing fun facts, historical snippets, and anecdotes from his new book, "Thirst for Power: Energy, Water and Human Survival” ( www.thirstforpower.com ). He helps answer the question "How can we change the way we think about water and energy to secure the long-term sustainability of both precious resources?" Although it is widely understood that energy and water are the world’s two most critical resources, their vital interconnections and vulnerabilities are less often recognized.
