The six NWNL case study watersheds and four spotlights (Kenya’s Greater Amboseli Ecosystem, California Megadrought, Northern India and Ancient Rome) offer contrasts and comparisons regarding their values and services, as well as the impacts of the extraction of natural resources, pollution, habitat degradation/loss, climate change, infrastructure and development, and other threats.
Using extensive research and hundreds of interviews with scientists, stewards and watershed stakeholders, NWNL shares sustainable solutions in developed and developing regions that promote greater water-use efficiency, environmental restoration, transboundary agreements, community-based conservation and watershed education
