Navigating to new shores: seizing the future for sustainable and resilient U.S. freshwater resources
The Johnson Foundation at Wingspread announced the release of “Navigating to New Shores: Seizing the Future for Sustainable and Resilient U.S. Freshwater Resources,” a report that culminates the Foundation’s work through its Charting New Waters (CNW) initiative. In its latest phase, CNW focused on what it will take to transform the nation’s aging 19th- and 20th-century water infrastructure into resilient 21st-century systems that will sustain the nation’s environment, economy and society for future generations. By aiming to help local, state and national leaders set a course for and navigate decisions regarding the conception, construction, financing and management of water infrastructure, CNW’s ultimate goal is to accelerate the widespread adoption of innovative and successful water infrastructure and management solutions.
