β€˜It’s a disaster’: drought measure to suck water from River Wharfe met with anger Campaigners accuse Yorkshire Water of negligence and say plan to top up reservoirs will kill the river’s fish

Evolving principles of women-led water diplomacy Nature Water - Inclusive water and climate-related decision-making has never been more critical to supporting the foundations for a peaceful and secure future.

Amazing key principles of women-led water diplomacy:

BUT don't miss the last one:
'Invest in women to accelerate solutions'

Poor diplomacy with his 'great' television

I sincerely hope that bullies do not fuel continental wars,
