Forest Resources hosts global water workshop
Scientists from around the world discussed the future of urban sewer and waste water systems at the International Water Workshop hosted by the Warnell School of Forest Resources and held at the Georgia Center in mid-May.
Workshop organizer M. Bruce Beck, UGA’s Eminent Scholar of environmental systems analysis, told participants that the challenge is to develop systems to restore global material cycles and the aquatic environment while maintaining compatibility with existing waste-water treatment plants.
“Cities quicken the pace of environmental cycles,” said Beck. “We need to look at ways to lessen our impact, slow the pace, and that means adopting systems that will work in sympathy with each other and with nature.”
