This #WorldWaterDay let's talk more about how to bring #ClimateFinance into the water world -

[Evan Thomas @ProfEvanThomas]

Can climate finance save our water?

While water is local, climate finance creates a global market for safe water.

@Virridy and @MCGE_CU have innovated this concept globally and in the United States - time for scale!

[Evan Thomas @ProfEvanThomas]

On #WorldWaterDay we need new tools, technologies, policies and community action to address the Western #Megadrought - don't be fooled by all this snow! We still have a big problem - https://t.co/tg2It1xxtr

Launched the @MCGE_CU @Virridy Amazi Meza schools water treatment program this week using @lifestraw and continued our research partnership with @B2P - both efforts are water resilience adaptations to climate change in Rwanda.

[Evan Thomas @ProfEvanThomas]

In beautiful #Rwanda excited to launch a new
@MCGE_CU and @Virridy project with @lifestraw linking climate reparative finance to delivering climate resilient clean drinking water for schools. This is my 20th year working on water projects in #Rwanda!

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

Every American deserves to turn on their faucet and have clean drinking water.

[Evan Thomas @ProfEvanThomas]

Awesome to be on @mcjpod talking about how we can solve local water problems with global climate finance tools!
