Connections among Water Resources, Energy Development,and Environmental Management:Selected Studies from LBNL
Water resources, energy development and environmental management are inextricably connected. We demonstrate these connections by reviewing selected studies in the Earth Sciences Division (ESD) of Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL), including the potential impact of CO2 geological sequestration on water resources, nuclear waste management, environmental remediation, and water-resources management under climate change. While humans have achieved remarkable economic and technical successes, these three issues mentioned above can significantly constrain the sustainable development of our society. However, any one of them cannot be fully resolved without addressing its connections to the other two. An integrated approach needs to be considered in both research activities and policy-making processes related to water-resources management.
