Last day of IWA NOM7. I heard interesting presentations, gave my own (hopefully interesting) presentation, met a lot of inspiring people, had good conversations, was fascinated by a great city, learnt to eat with chopsticks. Good 3 days! 😀 @HydroScholars @Geog_UoD @IWAHQ

[Carolin Vorstius @CVorstius]

1st day of IWA NOM7 in Tokyo! Great keynote presentation by @vogt_rolf on climate change impacts on NOM in water. "We have to stop solving today's environmental problems by creating the challenges of the future". Looking forward to tomorrow! @IWAHQ @HydroScholars @Geog_UoD

@nandan_dhk writes "Above all … this should be a home – not a house. Home equals safety, family, the place that provides security, a sense of identity and belonging, and a feeling of pride." Well said, and well so well done! Good luck with the next phase!

A great one for #ThrowbackThursday… A forgotten treasure trove of pics from the 1800's which show #Victorian pioneers building the #LochKatrine Aqueduct have been uncovered! Watch our short film📽️:

Coastal #Wetlands like #mangroves, #marshes and #seagrass meadows are amazing carbon sinks. Protecting these wetlands should be placed at the heart of mitigation efforts for #climateaction. #keepwetlands @Mangroves @WetlandsIntEA @RamsarConv

Great day yesterday at the @scottish_water Catchment Science Conference with lots of opportunity to exchange experience!

[DWQR Scotland @DWQRScotland]

We're at @scottish_water 's Catchment Science Conference today in Edinburgh. A fascinating range of topics being researched with some good learning points to take on #drinkingwater

[Convention on Wetlands @RamsarConv]

Tomorrow 26 July is the international day for the conservation of #mangroves. Mangroves provide multiple benefits to people and the planet. Its #WetlandWednesday and we are highlighting the value of mangroves.

[MedWet @MedWetOrg]

A new interesting report, published by Ramsar @RamsarConv , highlights how the multiple benefits and services provided by #wetlands are essential in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (#SDGs).

Bravo 👏! Last week, @EU_Commission restricted 4 phthalates from articles in the EU market. Phthalates are mainly used to make plastics more flexible, transparent & durable, but they have toxic effects on reproductive health and impact #OurOcean wildlife. https://t.co/qikv68LMuV
