WATER
Earth Trends –This website is one of major environmental information portals available on the net. Created by the World Resources Institute, it represents an updated online source providing extremely accurate environmental and sustainable development information. Here you’ll find a whole section dedicated to Water Resources and Freshwater Ecosystems: articles, researches, country profiles, and statistics all in an accessible format. One of our favourite sites! [www.earthtrends.wri.org]
UNESCO - Water – The UNESCO water portal is a real gold mine! It offers brief and clear fact sheets and figures – major source: the World Water Development Report. Among the main issues: ‘water and energy’, ‘water and cities’, ‘water and industry’, etc. It really deserves a visit![www.unesco.org/water]
WaterAid – Brief and extremely clear ‘key global water facts’. Dedicated to providing safe domestic water, sanitation and hygiene education to the world's poorest people, this international NGO offers a wide range of easy-to-use water related materials (countries’ profiles, case studies…). For teachers and students we highly recommend visiting their ‘Learning zone’ section. [www.wateraid.org.uk] YXC
